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
