Patty Griffin - Blue Sky lyrics

The farther I come, the farther I fall Whatever I knew was nothing at all It was nothing at all, just making me small Smaller and smaller, I fall back Sooner or later with a view from the ground Chasing the race and the races will run you down Sooner or later with a view from the ground And a tear in your eye, you say, baby, why can't we fly In the blue sky High in the blue sky Be my singing lesson, be my song When I tell you I'm falling, you tell me I'm strong The trees have grown tall, the birds have flown high Higher and higher, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye I'll fly over a rainbow, I'll be sun kissed Sail around the planet Venus And send a long letter way back home That says all that I know, all that I know Is the blue sky High in the blue sky In the blue sky High in the blue sky The farther I come, the farther I fall Whatever I knew was nothing at all The trees have grown tall, the birds have flown high Higher and higher, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
