I would search this world for you
Even though you can't imagine
I wanna take you to China
I wanna kiss you in Rome
I'd use rocket ships, mine sweepers
Transistor radio receivers
I wanna hold you
Wanna hold you too tight
Gonna break every bone
Of everybody in sight
When I´m flying so high
(flying so high)
Like a bird in the sky
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down
Down, down down
I hear your talking and whispers
Pale drawn out nails and fingers
I'm seeing shapes behind the curtain
You're looking older
But you can't be certain
You're so tired
(you're so tired)
But you just can't sleep
You're so shallow
(you're so shallow)
But you're in too deep
Your hands shaking, body's lifting
Body's mine
I know, I know, 'cause I told you so
When I´m flying so high
(flying so high)
Like a bird in the sky
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down
Down, down down
Oh, you're dragging me down
Oh you're dragging me down
Drag, drag, dragging me down
Oh you're dragging me down
Oh, you're dragging me, dragging me
Dragging me, oh
(You're dragging me down)
I never can quite remember
(oh) Was it June, July or September?
That you sold your soul to me, to me
That you sold your soul to me, to me
When I´m flying so high
(flying so high)
Like a storm in the sky
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down
Down, down down
When I´m flying so high
(flying so high)
Like a star in the sky
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down, yeah
But you´re dragging me down
Down, down down
(Dragging me down)
