I've Been High Songtext

von R.E.M.

I've Been High
--------------

Have you seen?
Have not, will travel.
Have I missed the bid from here?

Do my eyes
Do my eyes seem empty?
I'd forgotten how this feels.

I've been high.
I've climbed so high
That the light, sometimes it washes over me.

Have you been?
Have done, will travel.
I fell down on my knees.

Was I wrong?
Id on't know, don't answer.
I just needed to believe.

I've been high.
I've climbed so high
That the light, sometimes it washes over me.

So I dive into a pool, so cool and deep
That when I sink, I sink
And when I swim, I fly so high.

What I want,
All I really wanted
Just to live my life on high.
And I know,
I know you want the same;
I can see it in your eyes.

I've been high.
I've climbed so high
That the light, sometimes it washes over me,
Washes over me.
I close my eyes so I can't see;
Make my make-believe believe in me.
