Steve Jordan - Grounded lyrics

When eight turns sideways You head on down the highway Say this is my way Disappearing forever But there ain't just one way So you choose the fun way Sliding down the runway On a ticket that goes two ways And by the way that it sounded You thought that you'd be astounded But you left it like you found it 'Cause it wasn't yours to take What once seemed like dying Soon turned into flying So you settle for trying And you wish you were grounded No, you cannot get much higher Than your utmost desire So you bring it down to size and Now it seems that you are grounded Grounded By the way that it sounded You thought that you'd be astounded But you left it like you found it Now you find that you are grounded
