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
solo things come at me
i look to see where loss had ran
i can have the sun it come
and touch me on my shoulderthink 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 beautifulif 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 beautifulas 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
closing people come in but also 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 all alone
