Carole King
No Easy Way Down
Your toy balloon has sailed
In the sky
Now it must fall to the ground
And your sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
There is no easy way down
The view from the cliffs
Must have been exciting
And up to the peaks you were bound
Now you're stranded alone
And the past is unknown
Cause there is no easy way down
I know it isn't very easy
When you're left on your own
I know it isn't very easy
When each road you take
Is one more mistake
And there's no one to break your fall
And lead you back home
We all love to climb to the heights, love
Where our fantasy world can be found
But you know in the end
When it's time to descend
That there is no easy way down
There is no easy way down
