High Flying, Adored - Original Cast Recording/1979

High flying adored
So young, the instant Queen
A rich beautiful thing
Of all the talents a cross between
A fantasy of the bedroom and a Saint
You were just a backstreet girl
Hustling and fighting
Scratching and biting
High flying adored
Did you beleive
In your wildest moments
All this would be yours
That you'd become the lady of them all
Were there stars in your eyes
When you crawled in at night
From the bars
From the sidewalks
From the gutter theatrical
Don't look down
It's a long long way to fall

High Flying adored
What happens now
Where do you go from here?
For someone on top of the world
The view's not exactly clear
A shame you did it all at twenty-six
There are no mysteries now
Nothing can thrill you
No one fulfill you
High Flying adored
I hope you've come to terms with boredom
So famous so easily
So soon
Is not the wisest thing to be
You won't care if they love you
it's been done before
You'll despair if they hate you
You'll be drained of all enery

All the young who've made it would agree

High flying adored
I've been called names but they're the strangest
My story's quite usual
Local girl
Makes good weds famous man
I was slap in the right place
At the perfect time
Filled a gap
I was lucky
But one thing I'll say for me
No one else can fill it like I can
