High-Rise - Ashford & Simpson

I knew her well

We suffered through the good and the bad times

Believed above else

She was mine

But she said that it couldn't last forever

Running across the bridge

She said, no, boy,

Oh, no,I won't be coming back again

I've got better things to do

I'm gonna miss you

Chorus:

She wants to live in a high-rise

Way up on the east side

A city in high society

She wants to live in a high-rise

Way up on the east side

A city where she can forget about me

I remember the moment

She took me through it in the pouring rain

Said there's something all the love in the world

Ain't gonna change

And as we ran for shelter under the oak tree

She suddenly turned to me

And said no, boy,

Oh, no, we've pretended long enough

Now the time is almost here

I won't leave no tears

Repeat Chorus

Said she's got to find a way to get up there

Said she hasn't really made it yet to you up there

I won't be coming back again

I've got better things to do

I'm gonna miss you

Repeat Chorus and fade
