I live high, just like the birds.
I stay cool as the cool breeze blows.
You remind me of the grass, as you sway I see always.
So we swing, don’t fall too fast.
Watch the waves of summer pass.
Just relax cause we don’t control
what we find takes us up again.
It’s like the Lion to the Dave
I will lay you down like the day.
Like the sand to the wave
Cut me loose and I’ll float away.
You just run till you’re out of breath.
Just a few steps around again.
As I view you from up above
I look up so I don’t get lost.
Can we fly, while we’re holding hands?
Will it be like this in the end?
Sink or swim, will we have to choose?
I don’t mind win or lose.
It’s like the Lion to the Dave
I will lay you down like the day.
Like the sand to the wave
Cut me loose and I’ll float away.
She says “I’m high like a bird up in the stars.
I get high and can’t get my point across.
I’m high with my feet on the ground,
I get high when you’re around.”
It’s like the Lion to the Dave
I will lay you down like the day.
Like the sand to the wave
Cut me loose and I’ll float away.
