Dokken - Too High To Fly lyrics

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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus 2] 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 [Chorus 3]
