Cross Your Fingers

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
Call down lightning, rain and thunderLeave them ashes, all go underCross your fingers, hope I dieSo cross your fingers, hope I dieCross your fingers, hope I dieSo cross your fingersWell, I stand accused on the shore of a stormy seaAnd I have been abused for the visions that I seeAnd I survived the bullet you shot right through my heartAnd in this crime, I have surely taken partWhy you want to do it to me? Why you want to try?Why you want to hurt me, baby? Why you want to lie?Why you always smiling, baby? Why I always cry?Why you want to cross your fingers? Why you hope I die?Ooh-ohNow listenI've been made to suffer for your indignitiesAnd I've forsaken kindness, for there is none for meSaid you gave me madness, and on it you told me to feedAnd I've been cast aside for the truth that I believeWhy you want to do it to me? Why you want to try?Why you want to hurt me, baby? Why you want to lie?Oh, why?Why you always smiling, baby? Why I always cry?Why you want to cross your fingers? Why you hope I die?Oh, why?So cross your fingersCross your fingers, hope I dieCross your fingers, cross your fingersSaid cross your fingers, hope I dieCross your fingers, cross your fingersWhy you want to do it to me? Why you want to try?Why you want to hurt me, baby? Why you want to lie?Cross your fingersWhy you always smiling, baby? Why I always cry?Why you want to cross your fingers? Why you hope I die?Cross your fingersWhy you want to do it to me? Why you want to try?Call down lightningWhy you want to hurt me, baby? Why you want to lie?Rain and thunderWhy you always smiling, baby? Why I always cry?Call down lightningWhy you want to cross your fingers? Why you hope I die?Rain and thunder
