There's a river flowing up into the sky
To the sky, to the sky
There are trees with human heads parading by
Sailing by, sailing by
And the hands of giants hold the gates
In the clouds, in the clouds
Up there where the dragons fly
Round and round, round and round
Straight to your head
You stop me from growing up, you show me
Straight to your head
You keep me from shutting down, believe me
I'll never leave you, it doesn't matter what you do
'Cause I can go straight to your head
To be close to you
Outside in the night the burglar creeps
Oh he creeps, yeah he creeps
In the flowers behind the house the princess sleeps
Oh she sleeps, yeah she sleeps
In the land between the lamp-posts
Everything is black
And here we come a-stepping
On the cracks, on the cracks
Straight to your head
You stop me from growing up, you show me
Straight to your head
You keep me from shutting down, believe me
I'll never leave you, it doesn't matter what you do
'Cause I can go straight to your head
To be close to you
I - used to only see
What I was looking for
And I - used to only hear
What I'd heard before
Now I'm looking all around
And now I'm walking
Walking downtown
Straight to your head
Straight to your head
I'll never leave you, it doesn't matter what you do
'Cause I can go straight to your head
I can go straight to your head
I can go straight to your head
To be close to you
