Lyrics of 'Mile High' by Lydia Loveless

I didn’t come here to make friends, but I have no choice
I was getting so tired of being one of the boys
And when I got drunk I lost all of my poise
Now I'm sorry for the All-American Noise

I was thinking of things I’d do if I had the time
Until my fingers smell like pussy and Lucky Strikes
Why don’t you call me when the crisis subsides?
'Cause you know I can’t resist making an old man smile

And now I can’t come down, I feel so good
I didn’t want to, even while I could
I'm a mile high
I'm a mile high with you tonight

And now my heart’s breaking faster than my will not to call you
'Cause when you said that you wanted me, I thought it was true
Oh, and I just wanna belong to you
That lie damn near split my body in two

And now I can’t come down, God it feels so good
I didn’t want to, even while I still could
I'm a mile high
I wanna be a mile high with you tonight

And I don’t wanna die, I wanted to see the look on your face
When I jump, I wanna hear all the sounds you’d make
Oh, can I have one taste of every breath that you take?
Oh, yeah

And I can’t sleep, I’ve been climbing the walls all day
Trying to think about that perfect place
Where we could still get by on a piece of eight
And no one would ever try to keep me away from the gate again, no

'Cause we’d be a mile high
I wanna be a mile high with you tonight
Can we be a mile high?
Meet me a mile high again tonight
