Gravity Songtext
von Dennis DeYoung

Gravity keeps pulling me down
(repeat 7X)

I want to go to Houston, I want to fly to the stars
But I may not have the "Right Stuff" to make the trip to Mars
′Cause it's so hard for me to get my weight off the ground
Yes, it′s that Gravity – It keeps pulling me down

I want to climb Mount Everest, and find my Shangri-La
Learn the secrets of the Universe from the Wise Man in Nepal
But it's so hard for me – That mountain's so steep
I know my nose will bleed, ′cause Gravity don′t sleep
It don't sleep...


I′m floating... I'm floating... above the crowd
No tensions... no pressures... I touch the clouds
I′m flying... I'm flying... in ecstasy
My problems can′t find me... Zero Gravity

Gravity keeps pulling me down
That Gravity keeps pulling me down

I want to be a driver at the Monaco Grand Prix
Have the fastest car in Europe, and meet the Royal Family
But it's so dangerous – It's not the speed that I fear
It′s just so difficult to get my motor in gear

I want to be a Millionaire, and own a baseball team
Have a private jet for shopping trips, and a chauffeured limousine
And pay no income tax, and be healthy and sound
But it′s my Gravity – It keeps holding me down
