Is my world not falling down
I'm in pieces on the ground
And my eyes aren't open
And I'm standing on my knees
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down,
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you.
Turn me up or turn me down
Turn me off or turn me round
I wish I could have
met you in a place
Where we both belong
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down,
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you.
Sometimes I feel
like I'm just a helpless child
Sometimes I feel like a kid.
But baby, since I have changed
I can't take nothing home.
City lights at a country fair
Never shine but always glare
If I'm bright enough to see you,
You're just too dark to care.
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down,
But you're from my side of town
And I miss you.
Neil Young wrote an anthem for those of us who grew up during the turbulent 60's. Many, if not most, of us can relate to the drug culture symbolism (Flying on the ground)either from personal experience or from observing those around us.
I first heard the song in 1970 and was instantly hooked on the lyrics and the sweet melody. It is worth the time to find, purchase and enjoy.
