Such Great Heights
I am thinking it's a sign
That the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
And when we kiss, they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate
That God himself did make us into corresponding shapes
Like puzzle pieces from the clay
And true, it may seem like a stretch
But it's thoughts like this that catch my troubled head when you're away
When I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road
For several weeks of shows
And when you scan the radio
Oh, I hope this song will guide you home
They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay
I tried my best to leave
This all on your machine
But the persistent beat, it sounded thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly
You will hear the shrillest highs
And lowest lows with the windows down
And this is guiding you home
They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay
That the freckles in our eyes are mirror images
And when we kiss, they're perfectly aligned
And I have to speculate
That God himself did make us into corresponding shapes
Like puzzle pieces from the clay
And true, it may seem like a stretch
But it's thoughts like this that catch my troubled head when you're away
When I am missing you to death
When you are out there on the road
For several weeks of shows
And when you scan the radio
Oh, I hope this song will guide you home
They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay
I tried my best to leave
This all on your machine
But the persistent beat, it sounded thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly
You will hear the shrillest highs
And lowest lows with the windows down
And this is guiding you home
They will see us waving from such great heights
"Come down now", they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
"Come down now", but we'll stay
