10 MILES HIGH

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So high

I'm standing at the window for a salty snack
The cashier's asking questions and I'm staring back
I forgot the word for water and the price of fries
I hope he doesn't notice what is in my eyes
Red eyes

The boardwalk's moving like a heavy sea
And gravity is playing tricks on me

Oh, it's ninety-five and I am ten miles high
I'm drifting like a cloud across the burning sky
The air is thick as honey and the world is slow
I'm stuck here in the middle with no place to go
So very high
It's ninety-five

I made it to the living room and shut the blinds
I'm searching for a thought I simply cannot find
I'm focused on the ceiling for an hour or two
The way the blades are spinning is a lovely view
A lovely view
Don't you move

My sunglasses are on and it's dark as night
I'm hiding from the mercy of the midday light

Oh, it's ninety-five and I am ten miles high
I'm drifting like a cloud across the burning sky
The air is thick as honey and the world is slow
I'm stuck here in the middle with no place to go
So very high
It's ninety-five

I'm sinking in the cushions of the velvet chair
The smell of summer clover's in the heavy air
I'm trying to remember what I came here for
But I can't find the energy to reach the door
Reach the door
Down on the floor

Oh, it's ninety-five and I am ten miles high
I'm drifting like a cloud across the burning sky
The air is thick as honey and the world is slow
I'm stuck here in the middle with no place to go
So very high
It's ninety-five

Just me and the fan
Just the fan
I'm a happy man
Such a happy man
Yeah, it's ninety-five
Feeling so alive
In the heat of the day
Don't go away
Stay high
