Looking for Trouble

from Hard Frost by Annie Keating

/

lyrics

I wasn’t looking for trouble
I wasn’t looking to fall
I wasn’t looking for anyone special cause I wasn’t looking at all
But nobody knows when lightening will strike
And thunder can’t be seen coming
Right from the start you woke my sleeping heart
Though I did not see you coming

I was tending to my own fences
Trying to get through the hard days
It was then that you caught me defensless
I was held in the grip of your gaze

CHORUS
Forgive me all my failings I’ve got faults and cracks
But loving you darlin’ I’m the best at that
Bluebird at my window says it’s time to go
Meet me at the corner and lets hit the road
Bluebird at my window says it’s time to go
Meet me at the corner, take it nice and slow

You were not who I expected
But as it turned out to be
You were exactly what i needed
To set my weary heart free
No I wasn’t looking for trouble
But it found me in the nick of time
You were nothing I would have expected
But just what I needed to find

CHORUS
Forgive me all my failings I’ve got faults and cracks
But loving you darlin’ I’m the best at that
Bluebird at my window says it’s time to go
Meet me at the corner and lets hit the road
Bluebird at my window says it’s time to go
Meet me at the corner, take it nice and slow

Lucinda Williams. John Prine. Bob Dylan. Allison Krauss. Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt. Emmylou Harris - A short list of the musicians Keating has been compared to.
