High Flying, Adored Lyrics - Singles - Antonio Banderas

(Che:) 

High flying, adored 

So young, the instant queen 

A rich beautiful thing, of all the talents 

A cross between a fantasy of the bedroom and a saint 

You were just a backstreet girl 

Hustling and fighting, scratching and biting 

High flying, adored 

Did you believe in your wildest moments 

All this would be yours 

That you'd become the lady of them all? 

Were there stars in your eyes 

When you crawled in at night 

From the bars, from the sidewalks 

From the gutter theatrical 

Don't look down, it's a long, long way to fall 

High flying, adored 

What happens now, where do you go from here? 

For someone on top of the world 

The view is not exactly clear 

A shame you did it all at twenty-six 

There are no mysteries now 

Nothing can thrill you, noone fulfill you 

High flying, adored 

I hope you come to terms with boredom 

So famous so easily, so soon 

It's not the wisest thing to be 

You won't care if they love you 

It's been done before 

You'll despair if they hate you 

You'll be drained of all energy 

All the young who've made it would agree 

(Eva:) 

High flying, adored 

That's good to hear but unimportant 

My story's quite usual 

Local girl makes good, weds famous man 

I was stuck in the right place at the perfect time 

Filled a gap, I was lucky 

But one thing I'll say for me 

Noone else can fill it like I can
