I'm here up above the world
|
looking down on the river black
|
ready to take a great swan dive
|
'cause you're never coming back
|
I'm here up above the world
|
|
I always have to start all over
|
when I decide I should live
|
I won't be cheated anymore
|
'cause there's nothing left to give
|
I'm here up above the world
|
|
We almost started something
|
that you saw fit to take away
|
something so close to my heart
|
something near me every day
|
I'm hear up above the world
|
|
I'm here
|
|
Forever you were my sister
|
but you took my heart in chains
|
the worst was when you broke them
|
I cannot live with the pain
|
I'm here up above the world
|
|
I'm here
|
|
It's lonely here in the freezing dawn
|
the ships come in through the London fog
|
|
the builders there are tearing up my street
|
the ambulance roars
|
it makes the sound I weep
|
I'm here up above the world
|
looking down at the river red
|
trying to bet my prayer
|
at the foot of my lonely bed
|
I'm here up above the world
|
|
Since I'll no longer be living
|
you'll have to answer my mail
|
explain it all to the papers
|
that I bought my ticket for hell
|
There down below the world
|
