Lyrics Heavens to Betsy

Heavens to Betsy

Paralyzed

I seen the way you looked at the sky

You looked right up at it with unclouded eyes

That ain't the way i see anything

I don't know if i can stand another day of rain

You left the nest so long ago

You walked right out one day it was easy for you

Ruffle your feathers, everything you have in my face

Well i had to leave my wings at home today

Cuz i seen you in the sky

How did you get so high

I don't know how to fly

Cuz you leave me paralyzed

I i i i i i...

Wonder why

Only some of us get to touch the sky

You were born with blue, baby boy blue in your eyes

You were born to touch the sky, the sky my sky my sky

Cuz i seen you in the sky

How did you get so high

Cuz i don't know how to fly

And you leave me paralyzed

I i i i i

I know why

Only some of us get to touch the sky

I know what privilege is i know what mine is and why

But if i could i'd steal yours

And i would fly so fucking high

Cuz i seen you in the sky

How did you get so high

Cuz i don't know how to fly

And you leave me paralyzed

I i i i i i i...

Wonder why

Only some of us get to touch the sky

All that i can do is watch you fly

All that i can do is watch you fly

All that i can do is say good bye (?)
