Lyrics Neil Diamond

Neil Diamond

On the Way to the Sky

We are two

And two of us are one

I'm back on my feet again,

Out on the street again

Looking for love

On the way to the sky

Some people moving up,

And some people standing still

Some hold their hands out,

And some people never will

Lovers and liars

Consumed by the fires

Of too many dances

But not enough song, you're my song

We pity the poor one,

The shy and unsure one

Who wanted it perfect

But waited too long

There's no way to count

Or to measure the cost

Of the innocence lost

On the way to the sky

You and I

And we are two,

And two of us are one

But maybe two of us

Can be enough to get it done

Lovers and liars

Consumed by the fires

Of too many dances

But not enough song

We pity the poor one,

The shy the unsure one

Who wanted it perfect

But waited too long,

Much too long

I'm back on my feet again

I'm out on the street again

Looking for love

On the way to the sky

You and I
