Lyrics for Flying On The Ground Is Wrong

Is my world not fallin' down I'm in pieces on the ground And my eyes aren't open And I'm standing on my knees But if crying and holding on And flying on the ground is wrong Then I'm sorry to let you down But you're from my side of town And I'll miss you Turn me up or turn me down Turn me off or turn me 'round I wish I could have met you in a place Where we both belonged But if crying and holding on And flying on the ground is wrong Then I'm sorry to let you down But you're from my side of town And I'll miss you Sometimes I feel like I'm just a helpless child Sometimes I feel like a king, but baby Since I have changed I can't take nothin' home City lights at a country fair Never shine but always glare If I'm bright enough to see you You're just too dark to care But if crying and holding on And flying on the ground is wrong Then I'm sorry to let you down But you're from my side of town And I'll miss you
