High Times from Songs by Jesse Berkowitz

One thing I know for sure is I don't ever wanna die.
I wasted too much time
I got to start at the beginning,
I need a whole other life time.
I keep waiting on that song
That's gonna save me.
I keep waiting on that one
Gonna turn it around.

And I know it seems sometimes
Like we ain't got no future left,
And we'll never know if we even ever had a chance.
We got to run away.
We got to run, run away.
We got to run like the devil, run like the wind,
Go out of our minds,
Jump out our skin,
Leave it behind
And strike me blind if I look back.
Can't dream away no more,
We been losing ground
Got to stay high now, no more coming down.

I can't stop now, I got too much speed,
I got the wind at my back.
I got to lose these blues tonight or I don't know what...
These high times in the city lights
Are gonna lift me up.
These bright nights
Are gonna bring me on back to you.
