[Verse 1]

Rollercoasters and ferris wheels

You like how it feels

'Round and 'round 'til you lose yourself in the air

All those complicated deals

Your desperate appeals

Calling out to a god you know isn't there


[Chorus]

So high as you fell looking down on the tops of the trees

And all you can do is say

"Please, please, baby, please

Please, please, baby, please"


[Verse 2]

You were conjuring that year

A ghost engineer

Building gods who could put the clock in reverse

Breathing thinner atmosphere

So thin you could hear

Angels telling you "boy, you're making it worse"


[Chorus]

So high as you fell looking down on the tops of the trees

And all you can do is say

"Please, please, baby, please

Please, please, baby, please"


[Bridge]

Please give me height

Spirals or spite

Falling or flight, the boosters ignite


[Chorus]

So high as you fell looking down on the tops of the trees

So high

And all you can do is say

"Please, please, baby, please

Please, please, baby, please"


[Outro]

Rollercoasters and ferris wheels

You like how it feels
