Sittin' in the seat of my old olds

Pretty city lights down far below

Sittin' there soakin' up all of the heat of the fire

You slide a little closer and whisper in my ear

Never even get around to openin' them beers

Bein' here with you girl, nothing could get me no higher.

It's a long way down

Baby, hold on to me

Never let me touch the ground

It's a long, long way down

Yeah, I'm scared I'm gonna fall without your lovin' arms around.

Well, love for you is such a natural thing

You were born to spread those angel wings

Every time you touch me, swear I feel light as a feather

But it seems like every other corner I turn

There's another busted heart that's crashed and burned

Baby, just remember every time you take me to heaven.

It's a long way down

Baby, hold on to me

Never let me touch the ground

It's a long, long way down

And I'm scared I'm gonna fall without your lovin' arms around.

Tell me once again how high we're gonna go

Take me far away from the world below

We could be the few that make it all the way together

'cause I could start this car and drive back into town

Land us both safe on solid ground

But after tonight, girl, you're gonna have to love me forever.

It's a long way down

Hold on to me

Never let me touch the ground

It's a long, long way down

And I'm scared I'm gonna fall without your lovin' arms around.

Whoa-oh, whoa-oh...

Mm, yeah...

It's a long way down

Yeah, it's a long way

Oh, it's a long way

Oh yeah...

Hey, it's a long way

It's a long way, long way down

It's a long, long way

It's a long way down, yeah...

Take me higher

Won't you take me higher

Won't you take me, take me, take me higher, oh...
