It used to seem to me
That my life ran on too fast
And I had to take it slowly
Just to make the good parts last
But when you`re born to run
It`s so hard to just slow down
So don`t be surprised to see me
Back in that bright part of town
I`ll be back in the high life again
All the doors I closed one time will open up again
I`ll be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched me once will smile and take me in
And I`ll drink and dance with one hand free
Let the world back into me
And on I`ll be a sight to see
Back in the high life again
You used to be the best
To make life be life to me
And I hope that you`re still out there
And you`re like you used to be
We`ll have ourselves a time
And we`ll dance `til the morning sun
And we`ll let the good times come in
And we won`t stop `til we`re done
We`ll be back in the high life again
All the doors I closed one time will open up again
We`ll be back in the high life again
All the eyes that watched us once will smile and take us in
And we`ll drink and dance with one hand free
And have the world so easily
And oh we`ll be a sight to see
Back in the high life again
