If i was beautiful
if i had the time
they'd flock to me
bathe me in the wine
i know that's not the way
i know that's not how things are to be
(my baby left)
(my baby left)
(gone gone)
(gone gone)
i was always looking
and i held until the time began
subtle things come at me
i look to see where loss had ran
i can have the sun it come
and touch me on my shoulder
think of all the things that i could
wish that i had told her
i fly so high
then fall so low
(i fly so high, i fly so high)
if i was beautiful
if i had the time
you would flock to me
and bathe me in the wine
i know that's not the way
i know that's not how things are to be
if i was like you
with nothing to get around
then everything would be beautiful
as far as i can see
you'd be sitting here with me
'till love's end
i fly so high
then fall so low
i fly so high
then fall so low
signs of love (i fly so high)
away we could run (then fall so low)
i can see the light come peering through the sky in my mind
crazy people come and look at us we're lying on the floor
i would hold you in my arms until we both are home
i would hold you in my arms until we both are old
