The farther I come, the farther I fall
Whatever I knew was nothing at all
It was nothing at all, just making me small
Smaller and smaller, I fall back

Sooner or later with a view from the ground
Chasing the race and the races will run you down
Sooner or later with a view from the ground
And a tear in your eye, you say, baby, why can’t we fly

In the blue sky
High in the blue sky

Be my singing lesson, be my song
When I tell you I'm falling, you tell me I'm strong
The trees have grown tall, the birds have flown high
Higher and higher, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

I'll fly over a rainbow, I'll be sun kissed
Sail around the planet Venus
And send a long letter way back home
That says all that I know, all that I know

Is the blue sky
High in the blue sky
In the blue sky
High in the blue sky

The farther I come, the farther I fall
Whatever I knew was nothing at all
The trees have grown tall, the birds have flown high
Higher and higher, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
