Píseň: Too High to Fly

Interpret:
Dokken
Album:
Dokken
We sold our sons and we sold our daughters 
 Pretty soon we'll sell our brothers 
 We took the gold, but the gold was water 
 I tried to save the world, but I failed her 


 She cries the tears that I never left her 
 I left them all behind 
 You were sitting in your darkest hour 
 Summer's gone 


 We tried to make the world so much better 
 We send our words in a pretty perfumed letter 
 You sit alone in your ivory towers 
 I'm just one person, I don't matter 


 You tap the needle, and you went to heaven 
 You left it all behind 
 Now you're feeling oh so better 


 Too high to fly 
 You should've seen me there (Yeah) 
 Too high to fly, my baby 
 But you were almost there 


 The sun shines down on my face 
 But you don't feel a thing (no, no, no) 
 The lines on the street, and the some rises 
 You looked too long for heaven, now you're blinded, baby 


 Another morning sun 
 Another day gone by 
 The storm's coming 
 With the pouring rain 


 Too high to fly 
 You should've seen me there (Yeah) 
 Too high to fly, my baby 
 But you were almost there 


 The storm comes with the pouring rain (Salvation) 
 The lines in the street, and the smoke rises 
 Wanderin' round for forty days, hope you find it 


 Too high to fly 
 You should've seen me there (Yeah) 
 Too high to fly, my baby 
 But you were almost there
