You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine I will be drunk on cheap beer Like everyone else around here You've got the world at your feet There's nothing out there for me You don't have to lie Saying that you'll try To make it work from a distance Just leave me here to die As I watch you climb Up to the top of your ambitions You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine Here in a pale shaded light Under the trailer park lights There'll be nothing left for you to see You won't even recognize me You don't have to lie Saying that you'll try To make it work from a distance Just leave me here to die As I watch you climb Up to the top of your ambitions You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine I always knew (I always knew) that you would follow your big dreams What I didn't know (I didn't know) is that your dreams never did include me You're high upon the tower Now don't look down I will be okay here on the ground And you can always call To say hello from time to time When you're no longer mine
