Lyrics High Enough Instrumental - The Gray Havens

High Enough Instrumental

Freeze the moment in time
Travel back down the corridor of Eden, see the apple shine
It was gonna be the ladder to the skies in their mind
The moment I set it into motion
Play it back in time
It’s a worn out tragedy
And though history won’t repeat
We’re still livin' in the rhyme
'Cause we fly, to the mountain top
We climb, to the skies above
We sail, to the stars and up
But we can’t get high, high enough
Yeah I flung the earth, a trinket at my wrist
I said to the dawn that «I don’t need none of this»
Kept the sky above me with infinite profundity
Believed these shoulder blades would sing as wings
Cold minds of mine a gold mine of cold lines
And when it’s go time these cards, I ain’t fold mine
I told I was gonna shine
And I screamed to the ocean like all y’all mine
Little did I know my legs turned to lead
And two can keep a secret if one of ‘em is dead
And you can’t be an equal while being mislead
And I can see the sequel playing in my head
Who hasn’t imagined their arms a literal wingspan
And ran as fast as they can in anticipation
For the moment the laws of aerodynamics kick in
Only to be reminded of the space we live in
'Cause we fly, we fly, to the mountain top
We climb, we climb, to the skies above
We sail, we sail, to the stars and up
But we can’t get high, high enough
They tell me you’ll be free like a bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh
They tell me you’ll be free like a bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh
So tell me if you feel like a bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh
So tell me if you feel like a bird in the sky a bird in the sky oh
'Cause we fly, to the mountain top
We climb, to the skies above
We sail, to the stars and up
But we can’t get high, high
We fly, we fly, to the mountain top
We climb, we climb, to the skies above
We sail, we sail, to the stars and up
But we can’t get high, high enough
