so far to fall

Emerson Lake And Palmer

I was "Master Faster", I was "Mr. Mystery"
there wasn?t a mortal man was gonna make a monkey out of me.
I had reflex, action, first strike capability
so high - so tall - so far to fall.

I took my time, my life was all without a cause
till she came bursting through the frontdoor of my heart,
just like the signs that say I?ll follow by a star,
once more, no blame, I?m far, no name .

Too much, too soon, a touch of moon
a burst balloon, so far, so far to fall.
Ooh she had me, she had me running rings around the floor.
She had me nailed to a door, she had me crying out,
she had me crying out for more, more, more, more, more, more, more.
She bad me, she tied me up in knots like a piece of a string,
she did a thing to my thing, she did a thing to my thing
like it?s never been done before.

Too much ...

I saw stars, in the night, I was hers, I was high
I had so far to fall, such a long way to fall
and I fell and I fell and I fell ------

So if you?re "Master Blaster" or you?re "Mr. Mystery"
don?t think you?re insulated from love?s electricity.
There?ll be no escape for you, there was no escape for me
so high - so tall - one night you?re bound to fall.
