Lyrics
0:17I knew her well
0:21We suffered through the good and the bad times
0:24Believed above else
0:26She was mine
0:30But she said that it couldn't last forever
0:34Running across the bridge
0:37She said no boy
0:39Oh no I won't be coming back again
0:45I've got better things to do
0:48I'm gonna miss you
0:53She wants to live in a high-rise
0:57Way up on the east side
1:00A city in high society
1:08She wants to live in a high-rise
1:12Way up on the east side
1:15A city where she can forget about me
1:31I remember the moment
1:34She took me through it in the pouring rain
1:38Said there's something all the love in the world
1:40Ain't gonna change
1:44And as we ran for shelter under the oak tree
1:48She suddenly turned to me
1:51And said no boy
1:53Oh no we've pretended long enough
1:59Now the time is almost here
2:02I won't leave no tears
2:05No tears
2:07She wants to live in a high-rise
2:11Way up on the east side
2:14A city in high society
2:22She wants to live in a high-rise
2:26Way up on the east side
2:28A city where she can forget about me
2:44Said she's got to find a way to get up there
3:06Said she hasn't really made it yet to you up there
3:12I won't be coming back again
3:16I've got better things to do
3:20I'm gonna miss you miss you
3:24She wants to live in a high-rise
3:29Way up on the east side
3:32A city in high society
3:39She wants to live in a high-rise
3:44Way up on the east side
3:46A city where she can forget about me
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 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 No tears 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 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 miss you 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
