Baby when I put my mind to it   I slip into another gear and I   Travel in another syncopation   When all I wanna be is here with you and      I'll be true to you   Coss my fingers   I'll be good to you   Cross my fingers   I'll be true to you   Cross my fingers      Sure as a snake along the river   Sure as a ghost is in the trees   There is a promise love delivers   Even though you never promised me and      I'll be true to you   Coss my fingers   I'll be good to you   Cross my fingers   I'll be true to you   Cross my fingers      I wanna stay 'til my thoughts are okay   'Til my motive is clear, 'cause I'm driftin' away   From the weight of your arms, from your soft feather bed   To a cold white line down the highway in my head      All our little tears are icicles   Hangin' on the telephone lines and I   Call you up through all the cracklin' static   I swear I only hear you half the time and      No matter how I try to hold you baby   You only seem to slip away from me and then   We're walkin' out along the ocean   Or swimmin' like the dolphins out to sea and      I'll be true to you   Coss my fingers   I'll be good to you   Cross my fingers   I'll be true to you   Cross my fingers   I'll be good to you   Cross my fingers   Cross my fingers
