Why did you want my love
But you don't want my name?
Wish I hadn't stopped my horse
To get that drink of rain

How come we move so fast
But some things never change?
Wish I was a satellite
Over the open range...

How long, baby
Should I wait for you?
If I wish with all my wells
Will my wish come true?

One two, buckled my shoe
Then I lost my step
I woke up in Birmingham
With this ribbon around my neck

Red dirt, magnolias
Kudzu on the trees
Once I was a wildflower
Calling to the bees

How long, baby
Should I wait for you?
If I wish with all my wells
Will my wish come true?

Through the woods and back again
Night can get so long
Wish I was that starry sky
Inside your pretty song

How long, baby
Should I wait for you?
If I wish with all my wells
Will my wish come true?

Wish I was a satellite
Over the open range...
How long, baby
Should I wait for you?
If I wish with all my wells
Will my wish come true?
One two, buckled my shoe
Then I lost my step
I woke up in Birmingham
With this ribbon around my neck
Red dirt, magnolias
Kudzu on the trees
Once I was a wildflower
Calling to the bees
How long, baby
Should I wait for you?
If I wish with all my wells
Will my wish come true?
Through the woods and back again
Night can get so long
Wish I was that starry sky
Inside your pretty song
How long, baby
Should I wait for you?
If I wish with all my wells
Will my wish come true?
