gravity

 

i saw my ship coming in

it made a turn and went out to sea again

i've been prayin' for this day to come

and now I feel that it may never end

sometimes it seems i've got to fight the moon, the tide

they won't let me in

i took a good look around at those who made it out

i guess i better swim

 

this gravity it holds me here (against my will)

and i can't fly away (fly away to you)

this gravity it holds me here (it holds me still)

and i can't fly away, no

 

the time will come for me to fall

i can't keep hangin' on this notion

and on that day i will arise

and i will walk across this ocean

i've tried so hard but can't recall the place

where this all got started from

but now i realize that there's no joy

in going thru the motions

 

this gravity it holds me here (against my will)

and i can't fly away (fly away to you)

this gravity it holds me here (it holds me still)

and i can't fly away
