I Can’t Get High Enough

c Tommy Moonlight

I hear her move about. I hear her curse the light

She stumbles down the stairs. Hello new day

Scotch whiskey and lemonade. We’re out of ice cold beer

Breakfast for champions. She’s on her way.

Baby used to say I can’t get high enough

I can’t get high enough

No matter how I try

Yes she used to say I can’t get high enough

I can’t get high enough

Now hear her moan She’s all alone

Can’t find her way back home

She made a promise once to love and to be true

In sickness and in health I said that too

But more and more it seems my promise fuels her schemes

I’ve got to take a stand I’ll make it now

Baby used to say……….

All the times I tried to follow

Now I wait at home

Every day alone- Every night so long

This started all in fun. Two sweethearts on the run

Why worry we’ve got time. The road is long

But then she picked up speed. And then she took that turn

I stopped to catch my breath and she was gone

Baby used to say………
