Eight Miles High Songtext
von Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

This is a song about an airplane ride over to England
Called "Eight Miles High"

Eight miles high, and when you touch down
You′ll find that it's, stranger than known
Signs in the street, that say where you′re goin'
Are somewhere, just being their own


Nowhere is, there warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losin' their ground
Rain gray town, known for it′s sound
In places, small faces unbound

(One, two, three)

Round the squares, huddled in storms
Some laughin′, some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes, and black limousines
Some livin', some standing alone
