blue sky
The farther I come the farther I fall Whatever I knew it was nothing at all Nothing at all, just making me small Smaller and smaller I fall back  Sooner or later with a view from the ground Chasing the race and the races run you down Sooner or later with a view from the ground And a tear in your eye You say baby why can't we fly Into the blue sky High Into the blue sky  Be my singing lesson Be my song When I tell you I'm falling You tell me I'm strong You say trees have grown tall Birds have flown high Higher and higher Goodbye goodbye goodbye I'll fly over a rainbow I'll be sun kissed Sail around the planet Venus And send a long letter Way back home That says all that I know All that I know is the blue sky High in the blue sky  The farther I come the farther I fall Whatever I knew it was nothing at all Trees have grown tall, birds have flown high Higher and higher Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
