Highrise Lyrics by Vance Gilbert

One Thru Fourteen

0

[Verse 1]
Last night I had a dream
I dreamt about my love
And my love was a highrise
And the highrise was on fire
As the flames were licking higher
Asking do you jump or burn
As if it was to matter
Either way this is forever

[Chorus]
And I love you just like thunder
I love you like Christmas morn'
And I want you to hold me
Like I'm going off to war
And I need you like fresh water
I need you like scotch whisky needs
A man who is addicted
I love you just like thunder, yeah

[Verse 2]
And it brought me to an altar
Where the despots are forgiven
And the charlatans come clеan
And it shook my very soul
And from the outrage and thе mercy
Came a simple observation
That loving you forever
Is easier than breathing

[Chorus]
And I love you just like thunder
I love you like Christmas morn'
And I want you to hold me
Like I'm going off to war
And I need you like fresh water
I need you like scotch whisky needs
A man who is addicted
I love you just like thunder, yeah

[Verse 3]
And as time goes rushing by
Just like water for the ocean
And my body grows diseased
My mind is sure to follow
Will you look into these eyes
And recall a finer time
For both of us?
Would you do that if you're mine?

[Chorus]
And I love you just like thunder
I love you like Christmas morn'
And I want you to hold me
Like I'm going off to war
And I need you like fresh water
I need you like scotch whisky needs
A man who is addicted
Lord, I love you just like thunder
