When You're On Top - The Wallflowers

I need a bed

That nobody’s slept in

I need some air

Nobody’s been breathing

I need a thought

That I can believe in

Is this fog

Or is the building really burning

I need you

Much more than ever

I’m making new friends

But none of them matter

Maybe now

We don’t fit together

But you’ve got your arms around

No one but strangers

I feel fine

With the sun in my eyes

The wind in my hair

When I’m falling out of this sky

I’m doing better than I thought I would

But nothing’s ever as good

As when you’re on top

I want to wake up

And just start running

Into a ditch

Or straight up a mountain

I want to get

Where no one been gettin'

Make it deeper than hell

Or make it higher than heaven

I need someone whose price hasn’t been met

When everybody’s disappearing

By the minute

There isn’t anyone left

I haven’t meet yet

Well I remember

When they hadn’t gotten to you yet

Half way up

And over this rainbow

I heard a shot

Fire up from a ghetto

As I drop

I didn’t think you’d follow

Just didn’t know

The sky was this shallow

I need a garden

Where nothing’s forbidden

I need an apple

That no one’s been eatin'

I want to start again

Back at the beginnin'

I had a vision

That this feeling maybe has an ending
