Just Want to See - Cowboy Junkies

Don’t want to be no patch on no quilt

(Just want to see)

Tear stained stitchin' linkin' memories to guilt

(Just want to see)

Don’t want to be no hair on no wall

(Just want to see)

Blood stained note saying 'Fuck you all'

I just want to see what kills me

Tommy, are you ready?

We better head to town

J.D.'s box is waitin' to be lowered down

And you know how he hates to be kept waitin' 'round

Don’t want to be no chalk line drawin'

(Just want to see)

Toe tagged question mark, until identifying

(Just want to see)

Don’t want to fuse with no economy seat

(Just want to see)

Fuel some fireball at thirty thousand feet

I just want to see what kills me

Tommy, did you catch his face before they closed the lid?

I swear I saw him wink once and flash me that old grin

Oh, you know, that would be just like him

Don’t want to face no hollow eyed endin'

(Just want to see)

Loved ones buried, empty days of waiting

I just want to see what kills me

Tommy darling, come to bed, sleep away the sadness

These memories too are bound to die

So our dreams will have to serve us

Tomorrow may be the day that our love betrays us
