Fast As You

WV2272/2025

A mix of watercolours, ecoline ink & coloured pencils on Steinbach paper.

 

"Maybe someday I'll be strong

Maybe it won't be long

I'll be the one who's tough, yeah

You'll be the one who's got it rough

 

It won't be long

And maybe I'll be real strong

 

Maybe I'll do things right

Maybe I'll start tonight

You'll learn to cry like me, girl

Baby, let's just wait and see

 

Maybe I'll start tonight

And do things right...."

 

You'll control me, oh, so boldly

Rule me 'til I'm free

The pain that shakes me finally makes me

Get up off of my knees

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Maybe I'll be fast as you

Maybe I'll break hearts too

But I think that you'll slow down

When your turn to hurt comes around

 

Maybe I'll break hearts

And be as fast as you, uh

 

You'll control me, oh, so boldly

Rule me 'til I'm free

The pain that shakes me finally makes me

Get up off of my knees...."

 

FAST AS YOU - Dwight Yoakam, 1993.
