Sam Phillips - Larger Than Life lyrics

I met you once backstage At a very tender age You took me under your wing And I remember Those seas of screaming hands Were at your own command So hypnotised when you sing And there seemed to be a price to pay Getting bigger every day And you were larger than life We're graded up to hero Larger than life And it must be hard to keep living The things that you say When they're making you larger than life I'm learning what it means To be somebody's dream When I'm looking for the dream myself But that's not really me They're twisting what they see It's only one hero to Hell And there seems to be a price to pay Getting higher every day Larger than life We're graded up to hero Larger than life And you know it's hard to keep living The things that we say When they're making us larger Larger than life And the higher you're above it all The easier it is to fall Larger than life Larger than life
