No Easy Way Down

(album: Stretch - 1973)

Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky, love
But now it must fall to the ground
And your sad eyes reveal just how badly you feel

And there is no easy way down

The view from the cliffs must have been exciting
And up to the peaks you were bound
Now you're stranded alone and the path is unknown

And there is no easy way down

No, it isn't very easy when you're left on your own
Hey, it isn't very easy when each road you take
Is one more mistake and there's no-one to break
You fall and leads you back home

We all like to fly to the heights, love
Where our fantasy worlds can be found
You must know it's the end when it's time to descend

And there is no easy way down

And there is no easy way down..
