(Jimmy Webb)
|
I 'm tired of tracing vapor trail, ghost letters in the sky
|
Living life in daydreams, watching precious time get by
|
|
Circle around this great big world, just chasing smoke, and never
|
touching ground
|
|
Like a skywriter, rebel without a cause, drifting without an aim
|
|
But I can't seem to give up this flying game
|
I'm a wing walker, working without a net
|
That's all I've ever been
|
And I wonder if I'm ever coming down again
|
|
Some people say I'm losing touch with harsh reality
|
Because I can't accept the way it is with you and me
|
Stop living in the past, like some old pilot from a war that
|
wouldn't end
|
|
Like a barnstormer, safe with my heart and wings
|
How could I ever fall
|
So serenely do I glide above it all
|
|
I'm a skywriter, I can't forget you yet
|
For whatever that it's worth
|
|
And sometimes I think I'm never coming back
|
|
Skywriter - I can't forget you yet
|
For whatever that it's worth
|
|
And sometimes I think I'm never coming back to earth.
