Well I was on the other side, trying just to get back
I was looking for a fast ride, and trying to place the blame
Heading outta that town, I was thinking 'bout the bare facts
Even if we get around, we'll never be the same
And sometimes it's a long way down
If you gonna take the high ground
Baby it's a long way down
To get back to you
Combing through the want ads, well that ain't really my scene
I'm tired of the light load and living in between
Coming across the state line, I took it as a good sign
I heard somebody whisper, they were calling out my name
And sometimes it's a long way down
If you gonna take the high ground
Baby it's a long way down
To get back to you
And sometimes it's a long way down
If you gonna take the high ground
Baby it's a long way down
To get back to you
Well tell me what you feel like, I might be the right guy
I'm standing in the cross hairs, I won't even run
And maybe if you say the word, we'll find a way to get by
It doesn't matter what you heard, doesn't matter what you've done
And sometimes it's a long way down
If you gonna take the high ground
Baby it's a long way down
To get back to you
Yeah sometimes it's a long way down
If you gonna take the high ground
Baby it's a long way down
To get back to you
To get back to you
To get back to you
