"Look Down" lyrics
"Look Down"
I'm holdin' my hand out
Keepin' my head high
Tryin' to get out of mechanical night
When I get to the top of the clear crystal mountain
I'm gonna stay up there as long as I can
And look down
Diggin' the sights all around
Listenin' to all of the sounds
And look down, and look down, and look in
And my mind sends me reelin'
Breathin' and feelin'
I remember the time when I tried to come clean
But my interests collided, besides I was misguided
And who do you confide in when you trip on a dream?
And look down
Diggin' the sights all around
Listenin' to all of the sounds
And look down, and look down, and look in
If you want to come with me
And tell me what you see
Just step in beside me and do what you want
And you may see clearly
Though it sometimes is lonely
To be free is the only possession that counts
I'm holdin' my hand out
And keepin' my head high
Tryin' to get out of mechanical night
When I get to the top of the clear crystal mountain
I'm gonna stay up there as long as I can
Diggin' the sights all around
Listenin' to all of the sounds
And look down, and look down, and look down, and look down...
Look down, look down, look down...
Hold on, I'm comin'...

The Left Banke - "Nice To See You" Try to tell
Who's singing the song so well
Leave your shell

The Turtles - "The Last Thing I Remember" Suddenly aware,
I was standing there,
In an deep, black sky,
In between the lines.
I believed that I was all alone.

The last thing I remember,
The voices of light.

Paul Revere & The Raiders - "Just Like Me" It's just like me
To say to you
Love me do
And I'll be true
And what I'd like
For you to say
Is you'll come home
To me each day
Now you'll be my girl
That's what I want
Just you sweet girl
