Rooftop Songtext
von Stereophonics

High, fly, fly

Standing on the rooftop
Trying to clear my mind
I only came up to look
But now there′s such a crowd

I don't feel that bad
Can′t help but laugh
And they cry out
Say, "Jump", and I say, "How high?"

I feel my body blowing
From every side to side
My mind can't help but knowing
What it feels like to fly

I don't feel that bad
I can′t help but laugh
But they cry out
Say, "Jump", and I say, "How high?"
Say, "Jump", and I say, "I might"


High, high, high
High, high, high
High, high, high
High, high, high
High, high, high
High, high, high

And they cry out
And they cry out
Say, "Jump", and I say, "How high?"
Say, "Jump", and I say, "I′ll try"
Say, "Jump", and I say, "Goodbye"
Say, "Jump", and I say, "How high?"

High, fly, fly

I'm just standing on the edge of
Something I should try to hide from
I don′t know much, but I know some things
I need to try and find me a way

Try, I only come out fighting
I don't feel I should deny them
Can′t help knowing what is down there
Feels like I should fly now for them


You're fascinated, mis-educated
It′s reincarnation of my imagination
I'm far away from here today
It's where I′ll stay if I get my way
It′s lying awake that makes me sane
But it makes me sick, but I can't change again

There′s just time for another
Could down me another one
When I'm leaving with the others
Going home sweet home, surprise someone

Put my key into the front door
Keeping quiet, but I′m drunk
When I'm creeping up the old stairs
Stepping over the one, the one that′s done

Now my head has started spinning
Spinning 'round and 'round
Could be you with a man in our bed
Or it could be the wine, surprise

There′s still time for another
Could down me another one
Won′t bother leaving with the others
No home sweet home, surprise no one

Throw my keys into the river
Singing louder than a drunk
Won't bother sleeping on the old stairs
Staying up ′til it's sun, down another one

Now my head has started spinning
Spinning ′round and 'round
Could be you with a man in our bed
Or it could be the wine, surprise

There′s still time for another
Down me another one
When I'm leaving with the others
Going home sweet home, surprise no one
