You re high upon the tower
Now don t look down
I will be okay here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you re no longer mine
[ / / / ]
I will be drunk on cheap beer
Like everyone else around here
You ve got the world at your feet
But there s nothing out there for me
You don t have to lie
Saying that you ll try
To make it work from a distance
Just leave me here to die
As I watch you climb
Up to the top of your ambitions
You re high upon the tower
Now don t look down
I will be okay here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you re no longer mine
Here in a pale shade of lights
Under the trailer park lights
There ll be nothing left for you to see
You won t even recognize me
You don t have to lie
Saying that you ll try
To make it work from a distance
Just leave me here to die
As I watch you climb
Up to the top of your ambitions
You re high upon the tower
Now don t look down
I will be okay here on the ground
And you can always call
To say hello from time to time
When you re no longer mine
I always knew (I always knew) that you would follow your big dreams
What I didn t know (I didn t know) is that your dreams never did include me

You re high upon the tower
