such great heights

Ben Folds

I am thinking it s a sign
That the freckles in our eyes
Are mirror images
And when we kiss they re perfectly aligned

And I have to speculate
That God Himself did make
Us into corresponding shapes
Like puzzle pieces from the clay

And true, it may seem like a stretch
But it s thoughts like this that catch
My troubled head when you re away
When I am missing you to death

When you are out there on the road
For several weeks of shows
And when you scan the radio
I hope this song will guide you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
Come down now they ll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
Come down now but we ll stay

I tried my best to leave
This all on your machine
But the persistent beat
It sounded thin upon listening
And that frankly will not fly
You ll hear the shrillest highs
And lowest lows with the windows down
While this is guiding you home

They will see us waving from such great heights
Come down now they ll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
Come down now but we ll stay

They will see us waving from such great heights
Come down now they ll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
Come down now but we ll stay

They will see us waving from such great heights
Come down now they ll say
But everything looks perfect from far away
Come down now but we ll stay
