You Can Only Get So High Lyrics

by Richie Sambora

Hard time wake up this morning
Closed the blinds so I can see
First light came without a warning
Hit the sunrise, get the daylight it's out of me

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e103925-richie_sambora~you_can_only_get_so_high_lyrics.html ]
Down seven times alone for breakfast
Chasing down where's last night cloudy memory
Empty bottle preach the gospel
Another shot ain't coming close to saving me
Close to saving me

You can only get so high
Then you got a come down
Twisted in the clouds, just like a kite
Back in just despair up in the sky
Flying in the freehold
Before you know it is your last call
I'll take one more drink and two packs of love
Driving out the demons in the sky
You can only get so high
You can only get so high

Life was one long after party
My welcome was too long of a stay
The guitar sings the same old story
But they leave it out, got the bills of getting paid
You keep yourself 10 second chances
So I ain't quitting I'm just leaving for a while
Ended like some many bad romances
One more picture left before you say goodbye

You can only get so high
Then you got a come down
Twisted in the clouds, just like a kite
Back in just despair up in the sky
Flying in the freehold
Before you know it is your last call
I'll take one more drink and two packs of love
Driving out the demons in the sky
You can only get so high
You can only get so high

Endless limitation that I keep on gettin' back
I guess I stopped by sitting down with me, myself and I
I think it's best to leave my desperation to desire

You can only get so high
Then you got to come down
Twisted in the clouds, just like a kite
Back in despair up in the sky
Flying in the freehold
Before you know it is your last call
I'll take one more drink and two packs of love

You can only get so high
Till your bottle melt a breakdown
You can only hurt so many times
Before the truth falls from the lie
Flying in the freehold
Just before you hit the last one
They only get one more chance and one last goodbye
It took me a lifetime to realize
You can only get so high
You can only get so high
Then you got a come down
