Living Too Close To The Ground Lyrics - Everly Brothers

Listen and hear each word, 

Stop, or you'll miss the birds 

They sing in the top of the trees 

Sometimes when you look, you can't see 

But up there you will know that it's round 

You're living too close to the ground 

Come where the lights are grand 

Leave now without a plan 

You can get away if you choose 

Confess it, you've nothing to lose 

And I can show you where it's found 

You're living too close to the ground

Rush so you'll pass it by, 

Don't let it catch your eye 

Don't stop you might look a fool 

Standing with love in your eyes 

Trying hard to believe what you've found 

You're living too close to the ground

I once held her close to me, 

Listened and heard her breathe 

Just like I have done all my life 

Her heart was the image of mine 

Ah, but my wings just couldn't be found 

I was living too close to the ground
