The Lift Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Spaceman

Songwriters:Nilsson, Harry

Lift me up
and hold me up high
let my arms reach up to the sky
i grab a cloud and then i hold on tight
you can try to pull with all your might
but i won't let go
i'm a spaceman
like a rocket
shot out into space
seems to be the best way out of this place
all this great big world i'll circle round
without the thought of ever coming down
and i'll be so high
i'm a spaceman
the final push
to send me all the way
far beyond the stars of the milky way
traveling all alone where day is never light
maybe one day i can make it right
and i'll feel so high
i'm a spaceman


2.Red Shirt

It's either moving too fast
or too slow
play the string gently now
pull the bow
so tired
why are you down?
woke up at the laundromat
with clothes to clean
the tv's dripping sound down
into a life you can dream
smoke breathes through
an empty room
i get the feeling you'd understand
pulls you all around
turns you up and down (can't live without it)
a good day is just a red shirt tumbling in between
a dollar wins the lottery
when pigs can fly
folding paper airplanes
and circling classifieds
time luring
back outside it's a blue sky


3.Bury The Lead

I'm exposed to you like acid rain
buried under all your nuclear waste
sun's in shadows
grass still won't grow
clouds glow green tonight
what's the problem did your promise leak
is it hollow or maybe just too weak
hope the crow flies
through your disguise
straight toward obvious
its so wrong
so right
the scale's off balance in my mind
if i were you
and you were me
would i lie to you like you bury the lead
trust the forecast shows some warming signs
or those dry gulch pirates might reorganize
makes me wonder
who'll feed thunder
when lightning calls a strike
chorus
reassurance throw me out more line
make ugly shiny and i'll bite every time
