No Easy Way Down

(album: Stoney End - 1971)

Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky
But now it must fall to the ground
Now you're sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
'Cause there is no easy way down
The view from the cliffs
Must have been exciting
(Exiting, exciting, exciting)
And up to the peaks you were bound
Now you're stranded all alone
And the path leads unknown
And there is no easy way down
No it isn't very easy
(No easy way down)
When you're left on your own
(No easy way down)
No it isn't very easy
When each road you take
Is one more mistake
And there's no one to break your fall
And lead you back home
Oh, oooh. . .
We all like to climb to the heights, I know
Where our fantasy world can be found
But you must know in the end
When it's time to descend
There is no easy way down
You know, you're gonna find
There is no easy way down
No it isn't very easy (No easy way down)
When you're left on your own (No easy way down)
No it isn't very easy (No easy way down)
When you're left on your own (No easy way down)
No it isn't very easy (No easy way down)
When you' re left on your own...
