directions for use: open mouth, remove foot, say "I'm sorry"
As The Crow Flies
CHORUS:
as the crow flies, it’s just one mile
but to get over to your place it takes a little while
as the crow flies, it’s just one mile
but to get over to your place it’s gonna take a little while
I.
I think it’s ‘cause my pride puts a hitch in my stride
and makes me walk a little slower
knowing it’s high time to say I’m sorry
but I’m still workin’ up the nerve to come over
CHORUS
II.
I do regret all those nasty things I said
‘specially the part ‘bout wishin’ you’d drop dead
I’ve been eating my liver instead of humble pie
but to fix this mess, I’m gonna have to confess and do it eye to eye
CHORUS
III.
oh, the Lord does love the humble and He loves forgiveness too
and He sure would like to see me fix this thing between me and you
so I’m headin’ over your way and I’m pickin’ up my pace
and I’m hoping you don’t slam your door in my sorry face
CHORUS
