When You Come Back Down Lyrics - Tim O'brien

You got to leave me now, you got to go alone 

You got to chase the dream, one that's all your own 

Before it slips away 

When you're flyin' high, take my heart along 

I'll be the harmony to every lonely song 

That you learn to play 

When you're soarin' through the air, I'll be your solid ground 

Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there 

When you come back down, when you come back down 

I'll keep lookin' up, awaitin' your return 

My greatest fear will be that you will crash and burn 

I won't feel your fire 

I'll be the other hand that always holds the line 

Connectin' in between your sweet heart and mine 

I'm strung out on that wire 

I'll be on the other end to hear you when you call 

Angel you were born to fly if you get too high 

I'll catch you when you fall, I'll catch you when you fall 

Your memory's the sunshine 

That every new day brings 

I know the sky is calling 

So angel let me help you with your wings 

When you're soarin' through the air, I'll be your solid ground 

Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there 

When you come back down 

When you're soarin' through the air, I'll be your solid ground 

Take every chance you dare, I'll still be there 

When you come back down, when you come back down 

When you come back down 

When you come back down
