| Will you come down off there?
|
| It’s a heavenly height
|
| For someone so fragile and haunted at night
|
| And I cannot save you
|
| Try as I might
|
| I’m wasting myself but I want to take flight
|
| Oh kid, if I could, I would try
|
| So they gave you the Bible
|
| But the good book just lied
|
| 'Cause nobody said life would be such a trial
|
| And now there are tears in your eyes
|
| It’s a long way down
|
| Don’t look down, don’t look down
|
| And it’s hard holding on
|
| But grace will come, so kid hold on
|
| 'Cause I just want to love you
|
| I just want to try
|
| 'Cause life is so short and we’re both gonna die
|
| So put your head on my shoulder
|
| Lift your eyes to the sky
|
| You’re my blood and my baby and we’re gonna fly
|
| As long as we’re here we must try
|
| It’s a long way down
|
| Don’t look down, don’t look down
|
| And it’s hard holding on
|
| But grace will come, so kid hold on
|
| I just want to love you
|
| I just want to try
|
| 'Cause life is so short and we’re both gonna die
|
| But take a deep breath, let’s fly |
