Heights

Lyrics

Don't look down.  Too late dear.
I can see the whole town from up here.
God I miss the days that I was just a friend.
In your eyes, I'm outta sight.
Your admiration gives me fear of heights.
I can't help thinking I'll be falling in the end.

More you elevate, more I hesitate, more I wanna hit the ground.
More you fantasize, more I realize: I will only let you down.

Precious words pressure me.
In your estimation I'm so sweet.
Man that's heavy. Let me get this off my chest.
Any fool could love a saint.
Would you love me even when I ain't?
All I wanted was to know you like the rest.
More you elevate, more I hesitate, more I wanna hit the ground.
More you fantasize, more I realize: I will only let you down.

Don't worship me. I will never be who you've got up in your head.
If I ain't living up, I'll be giving up til you let me down instead.

I've been high. I've been low.
I've been good as far as people go.
Ain't good enough good enough here anymore?
My hands shake, and the coffee drops.
There's a reason that we fear the tops.
There ain't no where else to go except the floor.

More you elevate, more I hesitate, more I wanna hit the ground.
More you fantasize, more I realize: I will only let you down.
