High Flying Bird Lyrics - Don't Shoot Me (i'm Only The Piano Player) - Elton John

You wore a little cross of gold around your neck 

I saw it as you flew between my reason 

Like a raven in the night time when you left 

I wear a chain upon my wrist that bears no name 

You touched it and you wore it 

And you kept it in your pillow all the same 

My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms 

I thought myself her keeper 

She thought I meant her harm 

She thought I was the archer 

A weather man of words 

But I could never shoot down 

My high-flying bird

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

The white walls of your dressing room are stained in scarlet red 

You bled upon the cold stone like a young man 

In the foreign field of death 

Wouldn't it be wonderful is all I heard you say 

You never closed your eyes at night and learned to love daylight 

Instead you moved away 

My high-flying bird has flown from out my arms 

I thought myself her keeper 

She thought I meant her harm 

She thought I was the archer 

A weather man of words 

But I could never shoot down 

My, my high-flying bird has flown from out my arms 

I thought myself her keeper 

She thought I meant her harm 

She thought I was the archer 

A weather man of words 

But I could never shoot down 

My high-flying bird 

My high-flying, high-flying bird 

My high-flying, high-flying bird 

My high-flying, high-flying bird 

My high-flying, high-flying bird
