High

She had said, don't cry
Said it only hurts forever, and all we have is time
Yeah, she said, she will never know
So close your eyes, turn down the lights,
And I can start this show
Yeah well I can't sleep, so I believe
If the shades are drawn, then the slate is clean
So don't look at pride, well there is no other way now
Don't try to make no sense of this scene, it's just between Caroline and me
And we keep changing
Yeah we can grow like a board on the shore
She says I'm restless just a little more time
Well you know damn well she wants to feel this highYeah we knew just who we were
Yeah well who we thought we'd try to be
And who it's gonna hurt
Oh but if I'd said, if I was strong at all
Well then I wouldn't be with someone else
I know where I belong
Yeah well I can't sleep, so I believe
If the shades are drawn, then the slate is clean
So don't look at pride, well there is no other way, yeah
Don't try to make no sense of this scene, it's just between Caroline and me
And we keep changing
Yeah we can grow like a board on the floor
She says I'm restless just a little more time, a little more time
Well you know damn well she wants to feel this highYeah well I can't sleep, so I believe
If the shades are drawn, then the slate is clean
So don't look at pride, well there is no other way, yeah
Don't try to make no sense of this scene, it's just between Caroline and me
And we keep changing
Yeah we can grow like a board on the floor
She says I'm restless just a little more time
Well you know damn well she wants to feel this high
She wants to feel this high...high high...high-high
