Long Way Down

Sittin' in the seat of my old Olds
Pretty city lights down far below
Sittin' there soakin' up all of the heat of the fire
You slide a little closer and whisper in my ear
Never even get around to openin' them beers
Bein' here with you girl, nothing could get me no higher
It's a long way down
Baby, hold on to me
Never let me touch the ground
It's a long, long way down
Yeah, I'm scared I'm gonna fall
Without your lovin' arms around
Well, love for you is such a natural thing
You were born to spread those angel wings
Every time you touch me, swear I feel light as a feather
But it seems like every other corner I turn
There's another busted heart that's crashed and burned
Baby, just remember every time you take me to heaven
It's a long way down
Baby, hold on to me
Never let me touch the ground (oh yeah)
It's a long, long way down
Yeah, I'm scared I'm gonna fall
Without your lovin' arms around, oh
Tell me once again how high we're gonna go
Take me far away from the world below
We could be the few that make it all the way together
'Cause I could start this car and drive back into town
Land us both safe on solid ground
But after tonight, girl
You're gonna have to love me forever (love you forever)
It's a long way down
Hold on to me
Never let me touch the ground (never let me touch the ground)
It's a long, long way down (long way down, yeah, yeah)
And I'm scared I'm gonna fall
Without your lovin' arms around (yeah, oh yeah)
Whoa, mm, yeah
It's a long way down
(It's a long way) yeah, it's a long way
(It's a long way) oh, it's a long way
(It's a long way, long way down)
Oh yeah
Hey, it's a long way
(It's a long way) it's a long way
(It's a long way) it's a long way, long way down
(It's a long way, it's a long, long way) it's a long, long way
(It's a long way, long way down) it's a long way down, yeah
(It's a long way) take me higher
(It's a long way) won't you take me higher
(It's a long way) won't you take me, take me higher, oh
