Walking on the rooftops
Talking of times
With our eyes a glowing
Like the city lights
She stands on the ledge
She says: It looks so high
You know

It's a long way down
Feels like a long way down
It feels like a long way down
Like a long way down
Oh, honey, don't leave, don't leave
Please, don't leave me now

'Cause I can feel the rivers
Winding through the lands
Two lines and a poem
You know, like a kind old rye
You know, we could talk in that language
Only we understand
But you know

It's a long way down
You know, love, it's a long way down
It feels like a long way down
Love, it feels like a long way down
Oh, honey, don't leave, don't leave
Please, don't leave me now
