How High Lyrics
how high
oh! I can kiss the sun
run a minute mile
while you hitch hike
love shines a light
I'll be a winners cup
and I'm lookin' for the one who cut you up
you're not having me
you know the skies are mean
and I'm hopin' for a way to free you
love I'm fixing holes
the ones you break up
Come in from your drive
and the hand that rocks you
cuts you up like
lyrics of your life
I can't buy
what I've done before
I want to open up another door
I'm going to let you pass
I'm on another path
I want to be the king
while you zig zag
on a holy road
like Caine from Kung Fu
How high oh! I can kiss the sun
Hang on to your hopes my darlin'
don't let it slip away
and the hand who holds you
keeps you warm
and helps you live today
Love shines a light
and it takes and it hurts
I know I'm right
I can bend 'til I burst
and love shines a light
and repays you with us
Yeah too right
I'm gonna pledge my time 'til the day I die
how high
oh! I can kiss the sun
run a minute mile while you hitch hike
love shines a light
I'll be a lovin' cup
I'll be down when you're down
I'll be up when you're up
you're not havin'
I know the skies are mean
and I'll be looking for a way to free you love
I'm fixing holes
the ones you break up
comin' from your drive
and the hand that rocks you
cuts you up like
lyrics of your life
Love shines a light
and it takes and it hurts
I know I'm right
I can bend 'til I burst
and love shines a light
and repays you with us
Yeah too right
I'm gonna pledge my time 'til the day I die
oh! I can kiss the sun
run a minute mile
while you hitch hike
love shines a light
I'll be a winners cup
and I'm lookin' for the one who cut you up
you're not having me
you know the skies are mean
and I'm hopin' for a way to free you
the ones you break up
Come in from your drive
and the hand that rocks you
cuts you up like
lyrics of your life
what I've done before
I want to open up another door
I'm going to let you pass
I'm on another path
I want to be the king
while you zig zag
on a holy road
like Caine from Kung Fu
How high oh! I can kiss the sun
don't let it slip away
and the hand who holds you
keeps you warm
and helps you live today
and it takes and it hurts
I know I'm right
I can bend 'til I burst
and love shines a light
and repays you with us
Yeah too right
I'm gonna pledge my time 'til the day I die
oh! I can kiss the sun
run a minute mile while you hitch hike
love shines a light
I'll be a lovin' cup
I'll be down when you're down
I'll be up when you're up

I can bend 'til I burst
and love shines a light
and repays you with us
Yeah too right
I'm gonna pledge my time 'til the day I die

As rock and roll as the charlatans get. Epic from start to finish. The lyrics are just about being a winner or champion or taking a massive line of charlie whatever . But great tune I could play on the guitar at 3am so sample chords as all the best rock tunes are. The charlatans really are the most diverse band of that era . Listen too sproston then impossible then this. They love to change it up
[Edit: Spelling mistake]
Good song all in all, obvious meaning, no need to explain.
