Ashford & Simpson - High Rise Lyrics
I knew her wellWe suffered through the good and the bad timesBelieved above elseShe was mineBut she said that it couldn't last foreverRunning 'cross the bridge she saidNo, boy, oh, noI won't be coming back againI've got better things to doI'm gonna miss youChorusShe wants to live in a high-riseWay up on the east sideA city in high societyShe wants to live in a high-riseWay up on the east sideA city where she can forget about meI remember the momentShe took me through it in the pouring rainSaid there's something all the love in the worldAin't gonna changeAnd as we ran for shelter under the oak treeShe suddenly turned to meAnd said, no, boy, oh, noWe've pretended long enoughNow the time is almost hereI won't leave no tears, no tearsRepeat ChorusSaid she's got to find a way to get up thereSaid she hasn't really made it yet to you up thereI won't be coming back againI've got better things to doI'm gonna miss youRepeat Chorus and fade
