High Notes - La Sera

A little girl pulled me aside and said I wouldn’t make it through the night

Well thank you darling, this I know

I threw a look over my shoulder towards the guys who look dissatisfied

I’m sorry, is this song too slow?

Well I can’t sing it for you just the way you want me to

I might be tall but I’m not half the man you thought you knew

Who knew?

I’ll hit the high notes, wink as you walk by

I’ll sing a sad song, smile as you cry

Taking the high road, look me in the eye

Time waits for no man, old man, I’m saying goodbye

I feel it deep inside my chest that I just don’t fulfill you’re appetite

And that’s the way that this will go

Another band will play and you’ll still be the kind of guy I wanna fight

I shouldn’t let my feelings show

Well I can’t sing it for you just the way you want me to

I might be tall but I’m not half the man you thought you knew

And if I choke then you’ll be gone to find somebody new

Who knew?

I’ll hit the high notes, wink as you walk by

I’ll sing a sad song, smile as you cry

Taking the high road, look me in the eye

Time waits for no man, old man, I’m saying goodbye

I’m saying goodbye, I’m saying goodbye
