Skyliner Lyrics - Manhattan Transfer

I'm hurrying home to you 

I'm through with being lonely 

I'm hurrying home to you 

Don'cha know you're my one and only 

Fast fast travelin' fast dear 

The quarrels of the past we'll keep 'em in the past 

(Higher Higher Ever Higher) 

Skyliner Skyliner 

flying so freely 

We seem to really touch heaven 

Sunbeams all dance on your 

wings where the light falls 

And then when night calls 

Stars giving a show for the people below the sky 

(I'll get home sooner if the) 

Jet streams behind me 

memories remind me 

Your love will guide me 

Skyliner fly 

(Right to your lover and then) 

You'll hold him closely 

And sing to him sweetly 

Skyliner Skyliner 

A silver stream that's crystallized 

Shining its rays across the sky 

('n bye and bye the clouds roll by) 

Why don't we dig that crazy kingdom in the sky, that 

Hi-fly swinging in the Sky-liner 

Just forgetting the troubles below me 

Alan's solo: 

Flyin' in the sky 

It's a natural kind of high 

When you're ridin' in the atmosphere 

The steadily movin' ozone 

will direct you to this song you want to hear 

Hey (you dig me) If I'm dreaming shake me(better believe it) 

Say (you wig me) If I'm sleeping wake me 

Tim's solo: 

It's a little short time now upon this place 

We're workin' a lot n' frettin' about 

The who have n' who have not 

So please just take a moment out 

And move a little closer 

We will sing this song and try to make you happy 

Giving a show for the people below as we fly 

Hearing the beat of the motors repeat with a sigh 

(And so we're riding on the) 

Skyliner Skyliner 

(I'm hurrying home to you, I'm through with being lonely) 

flying so freely 

(I'm hurrying home to you, don'cha 

know you're my one and only) 

We seem to really touch heaven 

(Fast fast hurrying fast 

dear-the quarrels of the past we'll keep 'em in the past) 

Sunbeams all dance on your 

(I'm gonna be holdin' you, And now I'm feelin' jumpy) 

wings where the light falls 

(I'm gonna be holdin' you, I don't care if the ride gets bumpy) 

Then when the night calls (Fast fast travelin' fast dear)
