"Blue Sky" lyrics - PATTY GRIFFIN

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

High (ooh)

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
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
