Mak in’ my way down town, walk in’ fast, fac es pass and I’m home bound.
Star in’ blank ly a head, just mak in’ my way, mak in’ a way through the crowd.
And I need you,
And I miss you,
and now I won
der… If I could fall
in to the sky,
do you think time
would pass me by?
’Cause you know I’d walk a thou sand miles if I could just see you.
If I could fall
in to the sky,
do you think time
would pass me by?
’Cause you know I’d walk a thou sand miles if I could just see you.
If I could just hold you
to night.
