You Don't Wanna Cross That Road

notes:
Baby girl, you're getting bigger now
Pretty soon you'll be turning five
I got a few bits of advice for you
Remember it's my job to keep you alive and...
You Don't Want To Cross That Road Tonight
The other side ain't worth your time
Efforts better spent unwrapping waxen wings
Attempt to teach them how to fly
Baby girl, you're growing older now
Pretty soon you'll learn to drive
I've got a few bits of advice for you
Just like I've had since you were five
Don't stay too long in the burnin' sun
Nothin' you need to prove to anyone
Misplaced dreams take you towards dead ends
Hard to resist just one more taste again, and...
You Don't Want To Cross That Road Tonight
The other side ain't worth your time
Efforts better spent refining waxen wings
Attempt to teach them how to fly
Baby girl, you're a young lady now
Goin' on twenty-nine
Tonight more than ever, I am praying you'll remember the advice that you first heard when you were five...
Don't stay too long in the burnin' sun
Nothin' you need to prove to anyone
Misplaced dreams will only take you towards dead ends
Hard to resist just one more taste again, and...
You Don't Want To Cross That Road Tonight
The other side ain't worth your life
Efforts better spent remoulding waxen wings
Attempt to teach them how to fly
Unwrap those waxen wings, and teach them how to fly
