Lyrics Barry Manilow

Barry Manilow

Letter From A Fan / So Heavy, So High

Remember I sent you a picture

I know all the names in your band

I was the girl wearing yellow down front

I was the first one to stand

It's silly to think you'd remember

It's silly pretending you'd care

But I want you to know I was there last night

I was there, I was there, I was there...

Sometimes I think we're connected

I dreamed we were talking last night

Day to day stress just undoes me at times

But listening to you makes it right

I'm positive someday you'll see me

And love me just like it was planned

I feel all the sorrow you're trying to hide

You'll realize I understand

Oh how I understand...

Another room

Where the lights are too bright

Not gonna sleep

I want it just right

Another hotel room

Random replay

There's too many touching me

Keep ‘em away

Move into midnight

Just turn off the pager

I tell ya, the well has run dry

Too tired to sleep

Too wired to try

Fast track to nowhere

So heavy, so high

Too many scenes

And I'm losin' the names

Silence and talk

Both feelin' the same

All the same city

All the same night

Step over the bodies, boy

Turn out the light

Forever, whatever

What's winning or losing

There's nothing my money can't buy

Too tired to sleep

Too wired to try

I'll pass on the party

So heavy, so high

Hey I feel the moon breathin'

I hear electricity

I know the size of the sky

Too tired to sleep

Too wired to try

Time hangin' frozen

So heavy, so high

You never waved back at the airport

I covered your poster in mud

I cut out the eyes on the photo you signed

I wrote you a poem in blood

I'm stupid to think I could matter

A loser pretending you'd care

To you I'm a nothing

I ought to be dead

But night after night

I'll be there, I'll be there, I'll be there

The floor's movin' slower

The frequency's fadin'

I tell ya, the well has run dry

Too tired to sleep

Too wired to try

Fast track to nowhere

So heavy, so high
