Art Garfunkel - Skywriter lyrics

rate me

I'm tired of tracing vapor trail, ghost letters in the sky

Living life in daydreams, watching precious time get by

Circle around this great big world, just chasing smoke

And never touching ground

Like a skywriter, rebel without a cause, drifting without an aim

But I can't seem to give up this flying game

I'm a wing walker, working without a net

That's all I've ever been

And I wonder if I'm ever coming down again

Some people say, I'm losing touch with harsh reality

Because I can't accept the way it is with you and me

Stop living in the past, like some old pilot from

A war that wouldn't end

Like a barnstormer

Safe with my heart and wings

How could I ever fall

So serenely do I glide above it all

I'm a skywriter

I can't forget you yet

For whatever that it's worth

And then sometimes I think

I'm never coming back

Skywriter

I can't forget you yet

For whatever that it's worth

And then sometimes I think

I'm never coming back to earth
