Flying on the Ground Is Wrong

Is my world not fallin' down?

I'm in pieces on the ground

And my eyes aren't open and I'm standin' on my knees

But if cryin' and holdin' on

And flyin' on the ground is wrong

Then I'm sorry to let you down

But you're from my side of town and I'll miss you

Turn me up or turn me down

Turn me off or turn me 'round

I wish I could have met you in a place where we both belong

But if cryin' and holdin' on

And flyin' on the ground is wrong

Then I'm sorry to let you down

But you're from my side of town and I'll miss you

Sometimes I feel like I'm just a helpless child

Sometimes I feel like a king

But baby, since I have changed

I can't take nothin' home

City lights at a country fair

Never shine but always glare

If I'm bright enough to see you, you're just to dark to care

But if cryin' and holdin' on

And flyin' on the ground is wrong

Then I'm sorry to let you down

But you're from my side of town and I'll miss you
