Flying High

FLYING HIGH

A withered rose...
..................and tears are falling.
A broken heart...
.................and a closing door.
You placed your bets...
.......................on a heartless lover.
You tried your luck...
......................but it couldn't last.

If it goes up, it must come down
You'll fly with love, till you hit the ground
You'll never know, when your luck will fall
Yea, its the truth: you can't have it all

The sleepless nights...
.......................do they last forever?
The painful thoughts...
.......................are you all alone?
You risk too much...
....................when you trust another
You hope too much...
....................yea, your life's not fair

If it goes up, it must come down
You'll fly with love, till you hit the ground
You'll never know, when your luck will fall
Yea, its the truth: you can't have it all

An endless dream...
...................of warm caressing
A tearless face...
..................the only thing you need
And then you wake...
....................to loneliness
You touch his ring...
.....................hopelessness

If it goes up, it must come down
You'll fly with love, till you hit the ground
You'll never know, when your luck will fall
Yea, its the truth: you can't have it all
