ELVIS COSTELLO lyrics - On Your Way Down

(Toussaint)



Sunrise

Sunset

Since the beginning it hasn't changed yet

People fly high begin to lose sight

You can't see very clearly when you're in flight



It's high time that you found

The same people you misuse on your way up

You might meet up

On your way down



Vintage wines from the year '62

It's your thing, it's your thing

It pleases you

You got to frown when you cross town

You think it's an honor just to have you around



It's high time that you found

The same dudes you misuse on your way up

You might meet up

On your way down



You think the sun rises and sets for you

But the same sun rises, sets and shines

On the poor folks too

I don't mind you turning round

I myself would even like a little higher ground



It's high time that you found

The same people you walk on on your way up

You might meet up

On your way down

On your way down
