- Back Down To Earth Lyrics

(Carly Simon)

We jumped into a river on the moon
But the water was too cold
We tried to buy the morning star
But it was already sold
I wanted to make it big with you
But my plans must have been to bold TOO

And it's back down to earth again
Back in my car and gone
Back on the road
Back on the road alone
You were my summer angel
You're eyes how they shone
Just last night we were talking about
How much our love had grown
I wanted to prove how good it could be
But my plans will have to be postponed

'Cause it's back down to earth again
Back in my car and gone
Back on the road
Back on the road alone
