Toes

Norah Jones

The current is strong from what I've heard 
I'll whisk you down the stream 
But I never seem to have the time 
So my toes just touch the water 
So my toes just touch the water 

Daydreamed on the bank again 
I was swimming with the fish 
And I thought this time that it may be true 
But my toes just touched the water 
But my toes just touched the water 
But my toes just touched the water 

Walked a mile just to find the edge 
Some place low enough 
to step right in 
Now I'm here and I can't begin 
to move 

Walked a mile just to find the edge 
Some place low enough 
to step right in 
Now I'm here and I can't begin 
to move 

That spoiled sun up over there 
Always has to have its way 
And I know that the river's there to shelter me 
But my toes just touch the water 
But my toes just touch the water 
But my toes just touch the water
