Lyrics
VERSE:
Wishing on a shooting star never appealed to me
Pulling up the clover in the front yard
Leaves of three
I know you just lied to me
Every day I tear a page and write it off to misery
CHORUS:
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low, stay low
I'd, I'd stay low, stay low
VERSE:
(Let me fly, let me fly)
Do you remember when I ran away to West Hollywood?
Shrouded in oppresive innocence you never thought I could
I wish you'd just set me free
Every day I try to get it started but I stall
Every day I run a little faster but I crawl
Every day I climb a little higher but I fall
Every day I try to fly away but I am grounded
BRIDGE:
I wanna fly away to my hometown (The city where I should be)
To the place where my family's (Got a place set up for me)
I know if I could die I'd just lay low (And wait for destiny)
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low, stay low
I'd, I'd stay low, stay low
VERSE:
I left a message on your telephone the other day
Wishing you were there to pick up just so you could hear me say
I know you just lied to me
Every night I tear a page and write it off to misery
I wish you'd just set me free
You tie me down and hold me close 'cuz misery loves company
CHORUS:
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low, stay low
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low, stay low, stay low
I know if I could fly I'd just stay low, stay low
I'd, I'd stay low, stay low
Grounded
