THE CEILING IS HIGH           (C)BIRCH/LOWE 1995.     ballad

 

     JUST A FEELING, TOUCH THE CEILING

     THE KIND YOU WISH COULD STAY

     SHE'S STARTING NOWHERE, JUST SMILING

     & YOU MEMORISE HER WAY

 

     SOFTLY GROOVIN, SORTA GROOVIE

     & SHE LOOKS INTO YOUR EYES

     THE LIGHTS GO DOWN & THE RUMORS FLY AROUND

     BUT YOU DONT CARE

 

     'CAUSE IT'S YOUR TIME OF DAY

     IT'S AN OLD INFATUATION

     & SHE'S YOUR TYPE OF DAME

     & THE CEILING, THE CEILING IS HIGH

 

     YES, THE CEILING, THE CEILING IS HIGH

 

     SLIGHTLY HAZY, FEELIN LAZY

     & SHE WALKS INTO THE ROOM

     YOU DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO

     & WHEN SHE TALKS TO YOU IT'S OKAY

 

     YER YER

 

     'CAUSE IT'S YOUR TIME OF DAY

     IT'S AN OLD INFATUATION

     & SHE'S YOUR TYPE OF DAME

     & THE CEILING, THE CEILING IS HIGH

 

     YES, THE CEILING, THE CEILING IS HIGH
