Fly Too High (12 Inch Version) - Janis Ian

Written by：Janis Ian/Giorgio Moroder

Anonymous autonomous will likely get the best of us yet

Before you disappear if you can lend me half an ear I'll regret

If I treat you like a number

It's because I can't remember your name mmm

So have another cigarette and help me to forget why I came

Run too fast fly too high run too fast fly too high

On dark and lonely nights I'm only right when things are bright on the floor

Dancin' and romancin' gallivanting with a handsome I score

And if you don't believe me you should see me when I'm ready to roar

'Cause I'll lose my concentration with a new infatuation I'm sure

You run too fast fly too high run too fast fly to high-igh-igh

You got no past no goodbyes you run too fast and you fly too high

Would you believe I was once gonna be somebody

I packed up my bags and I took what I had to the city

Man it was rough to find the best I could be

Waitin' for the limit on a colour TV

Now I've made it this far got a room on the park and a view

Brand new fly too high

Run too fast fly too high run too fast fly too high

Hanging around on the infield what do you steal

But another feel at the top

Making believe in the long run when a shotgun

Is the way to get out of the shop

Hang tail in a new jail you can go bail

You can dance until you drop

'Cause there's no fool like an old fool in a new school

You just can't stop

Run too fast fly too high

You run too fast fly too high-igh-igh

Run too fast fly too high mmm mmm

Run too fast fly to high fade
