Lyrics You Get High - Terra Lightfoot

You Get High

You were spinning yarn and I was sweet at 16
And you drove your mother’s car to pick me up at 8:15
But I was always running late
And this was just like any other day
When you caught my eye you were just 23
But you left me cold and crying for the girl of your teenage dreams
All is fair in love and war,
My broken heart possessed your love no more
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
I was walking empty streets in the town where we were made
With our hearts still incomplete and I knew you felt the same
I was still just running scared
Every door I open led to nowhere
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
Then Steven St was ours
But you kept me far away
When I could not entertain you
You would show your other face
Suffering was all you did
When the morning light came streaming in
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
You get high
While everyone around you is getting low
