Why do I have to stay
here on the ground
It's overrated
The cityscape escapes
you with a sound
It's delineated
I waited at the station
for an hour
but I won't make it
You take off
on an updraft
by the tower
and you overtake it
Every moon that I
see you on the rise
You're drawn across
the sky
Now that ink has dried
and I can't tell you why
Oh Mimi can you tell
me there's an issue
I've seen it clouded
all around you
I hear you tell
me there's an issue
you've seen before
Oh Mimi can you tell
me there's an issue
I've seen it clouded
all around you
I hear you tell
me there's an issue
you've seen before
And I can't tell you why
oh I can't tell you why
Why do you have to stay
here on the ground
It's overrated
The cityscape berates
you with a sound
It's delineated
And no one here has
even learned your name
but they all claim it
They saw you land
and ran to do the same
but they won't make it
Every moon that I
see you on the rise
You're drawn across
the sky
Now that ink has dried
and I can't tell you why
Oh Mimi can you tell
me there's an issue
I've seen it clouded
all around you
I hear you tell
me there's an issue
you've seen before
Oh Mimi can you tell
me there's an issue
I've seen it clouded
all around you
I hear you tell
me there's an issue
you've seen before
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
And I can't tell you why
And I can't tell you why
Tell me there's an issue
I've seen it clouded
all around you
I hear you tell
me there's an issue
you've seen before
Oh Mimi can you tell
me there's an issue
I've seen it
clouded all around you
I hear you tell
me there's an issue
you've seen before
And I can't tell you why
I can't tell you why
