Flying on the Ground Is Wrong (Live at the Cellar Door 1970) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Is my world not falling down?
I'm in pieces on the ground
And my eyes aren't open
I'm standing on my knees
[Chorus]
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I'll miss you
[Verse 2]
Turn me up or turn me down
Turn me off or turn me 'round
I wish I could have met you in a place
Where we both belong
[Chorus]
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I'll miss you
Is my world not falling down?
I'm in pieces on the ground
And my eyes aren't open
I'm standing on my knees
[Chorus]
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I'll miss you
[Verse 2]
Turn me up or turn me down
Turn me off or turn me 'round
I wish I could have met you in a place
Where we both belong
[Chorus]
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I'll miss you
[Bridge]
Sometimes I feel
Like I'm just a helpless child
Sometimes I feel like a king
But baby, since I have changed
I can't take nothing home
[Verse 3]
City lights at a country fair
Never shine but always glare
If I'm bright enough to see you
You're just too dark to care
[Chorus]
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I'll miss you
Sometimes I feel
Like I'm just a helpless child
Sometimes I feel like a king
But baby, since I have changed
I can't take nothing home
[Verse 3]
City lights at a country fair
Never shine but always glare
If I'm bright enough to see you
You're just too dark to care
[Chorus]
But if crying and holding on
And flying on the ground is wrong
Then I'm sorry to let you down
But you're from my side of town
And I'll miss you
