Carole King - No Easy Way Down lyrics

Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky, love But now it must fall to the ground Now your sad eyes reveal just how badly you feel 'Cause there is no easy way down The view from the cliffs must have been exciting And up to the peaks you were bound Now you're stranded alone and the past is unknown And there is no easy way down No, it isn't very easy when you're left on your own No, it isn't very easy when each road you take Is one more mistake, there's no one to break your fall And lead you back home, yeah We all like to climb to the heights of love Where our fantasy world can be found But you must know in the end when it's time to descend That there is no easy way down
