i ll be a sky

The Tallest Man On Earth

I ll be a sky so full of empty now
That little falcons dive into, lover
So when I m restless they can lead somehow
What in the world I m going to do out here

I feel that I m a little lost most of the time
But I don t really mind, oh, when my heart feels young
I travel through the storms but then I hang to dry
And I don t really mind, oh
when my arm s in the rain and the sun
When they ll be working the only skies I know
Working the only skies I ll ever know

The sun is up there like a blazing eye
And I go swimming in the cold river
And I get hungry for the big ideas
How I could carry this whole world, brother

I feel that I m a little strange most of the time
But I don t really mind, oh, when my heart feels strong
I travel through the storms but then I hang to dry
And I don t really mind, oh
when my arm s in the rain and the sun
As they ll be working the only skies I know
Working the only skies I ll ever know

I traveled the fever road
I traveled clouds of my mistakes
And sure, I can drift away
But I ll be just around the corner from your love

There is a world within the world somehow
And it will steal me in the long winter
Oh, how I wish that I could call it now
Just to remember there is peace somewhere
I feel that I m a little strange most of the time
But I don t really mind, oh, when my heart feels strong
I travel through the storms but then I hang to dry
And I don t really mind, oh
when my arm s in the rain and the sun
And they ll be working the only skies I know
Working the only skies I ll ever know
