It used to seem to me,
that my life ran off too fast
And I had to take it slowly,
just to make the good parts last
But when you're born to run,
it's so hard to just slow down
So don't be surprised to see me,
back in the bright part of town
I'll be back in the high life again
All the doors that closed one time
Will open up again
I'll be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched me once
Will smile and take me in
And we'll drink and dance, one hand free
Let the world back into me
Though I'll be a sight to see
Back in the highlight again
Well, you used to be the best
To make life real out to me
And I hope that you're
still out there
An d you're like
you used to be
We'll have ourselves a time
An d we'll dance
till morning sun
And we'll let the good
times come in
And we won't stop till we're done
We'll be back in the high life again
All the doors that closed one time
We'll open up again
We'll be back in the high life again
All the odds that watch us once
Smile and take us in
And we'll drink and dance, one hand free
And have the world so easily
Though we'll be a sight to see
Back in the high life again
High life
High life
In the high life again
We'll be back in the high life again
All the doors are closed one time
We'll open up again
I'll be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched me once
Will smile and take me in
And we'll drink and dance
with one hand free
And have the world so easily
Though we'll be a sight to see
Back in the high life
again
Ooh, high life
You
