Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"Home And Dry" lyrics


This silver bird takes me ‘cross the skyJust one more hour and I'll be home and dry‘Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealin'.
Feelin' tired, but I feel goodCause I did everything I said I wouldI think of you, and I know how you'll be feelin'.
I gotta see you, I gotta be with youWe'll make it better now in every wayIt's gotta be you, it's gotta be youYes from now on I'll tell you everyday.
Way up here above this timeless seaI realize just what it is you mean to meYou give me somethin' when I thought that everything we had was dyin'.
I need a reason just to make me carry onWell I know better now, I know where I belongI can't imagine how I ever let myself just give up tryin'.
I gotta see you, I gotta be with youWe'll make it better now in every wayIt's gotta be you, it's gotta be youYes from now on I'll tell you everyday.
Oooooh, yes home and dry.
Ain't nothin' up here gonna slow me downYou know I never ever take the long way ‘roundI think of you, cause I know how you'll be feelin'.
This silver bird takes me ‘cross the skyJust one more hour and I'll be home and dry‘Cross the ocean, way above the clouds I come stealin'.
I gotta see you, I gotta be with youWe'll make it better now in every wayIt's gotta be you, it's gotta be youYes from now on I'll tell you everyday.
Oooooh, yes home and dry.
