Ian Anderson (The Designers Republic) - Ten Miles High lyrics

[Verse 1] Let's ride ten miles up Just inside the stratosphere More sky, more blue jets Stream by, you're gonna love it here [Verse 2] Let's fly ten miles up Just outside the atmosphere We'll climb oh straight up Set aside irrational fear [Chorus 1] Goodbye, oh to a cruel world Never again will I ever be grounded on Earth, or be bound by the hurt in your Blue eyes, offer a brave new world Out in the starry skies, our paradise, found [Verse 3] And as we rise so far above Our little lights in miniature Believe your eyes can be transfixed Knock, knock, knock it down, your heavenly door [Verse 4] (One mile into ascent, something's pulling me back) One mile in, it keeps pulling me back (At two miles [?]) Have you got to ever leave? (Five miles higher now, no turning back) Higher now, there's no turning back (Ten miles gone in the blink of an eye) Gone in the blink of an eye [Chorus 1] Goodbye, oh to a cruel world Never again will I ever be grounded on Earth, or be bound by the hurt in your Blue eyes, offer a brave new world Out in the starry skies, our paradise, found [Bridge] Lift me off the ground Then I look down Sing a sad goodbye The city is a toy town Left the law behind Straight up for miles Or you can hang down An alternative never given very much for you Never be ten miles high [Verse 5] Know the divine right by your side Come fill your eyes with its majesty The tears you'll cry, and the ones you missed Leave it all behind, and come with me [Chorus 2] Goodbye, cruel world Never again will I ever be grounded on Earth, or be bound by the hurt in your Blue eyes, brave new world Out in the starry skies, our paradise, found
