You Get High - Terra Lightfoot

You were spinning yarn and I was sweet at 16

And you drove your mother’s car to pick me up at 8:15

But I was always running late

And this was just like any other day

When you caught my eye you were just 23

But you left me cold and crying for the girl of your teenage dreams

All is fair in love and war,

My broken heart possessed your love no more

You get high

While everyone around you is getting low

You get high

While everyone around you is getting low

I was walking empty streets in the town where we were made

With our hearts still incomplete and I knew you felt the same

I was still just running scared

Every door I open led to nowhere

You get high

While everyone around you is getting low

You get high

While everyone around you is getting low

Then Steven St was ours

But you kept me far away

When I could not entertain you

You would show your other face

Suffering was all you did

When the morning light came streaming in

You get high

While everyone around you is getting low

You get high

While everyone around you is getting low
