was a beauty, nothing on her mind
I held her body to me, she's not the hurtin' kind
Fantastic c&endash; and un&endash; , like a star up in the sky
That Indiana limestone coolin' off as we got high
High as high as a water tower high
High as a pop fly high
High as a sunflower high
High as the wild geese that home can cry
We were gettin' high
We were gettin' high
Swimmin' in that quarry, swimmin' to the moon
A nautical safari with Venus and Neptune
We plunged the depths they dug our kin reaching for the sky
Gasping for that oxygen ya trade for gettin' high
High as a water tower high
High as a name across the sky
High as the final hour high
High as the wild geese that home can cry
Yeah we were gettin' high
Yeah we were gettin' high
I pieced this all together chartin' out my youth
Like a map of stars or weather well sometimes it is the truth
We explode into existence with a universal sigh
Two kids out on a summer night doin' nothin' but getting high
