Thief from KITTY & FRANK by Lucie Thorne

Thief

I keep real quiet
bringing fuel in for the stove
I’m gonna feed this fire
so that you can see the smoke

I reckon mama’s known it
right there from the moment you walked in

That moment when your eyes held mine
I’ve never known something make me shine so bright
I can’t think straight, I’m in whirl
this thief of horses gonna steal my world

I can’t think straight, I can’t eat
my heart is charging and I sure can’t sleep
I’ve never known nothing like this charge and spark
this thief of horses gonna steal my heart

And while they’re sleeping
I listen for that sound
I wanna hear that rumble
I wanna know just what we’ve found

I know mama’s seen it
and I’m sure not what I used to be

I can’t concentrate on nothing else
I can’t think straight and I can’t help myself
that voice those hands, I’m in a whirl
this thief of horses gonna steal my world

A fire is burning and it’s in my blood
caught red-handed in a flashing flood
I’ve never known nothing like this charge and spark
this thief of horses gonna steal my heart
