Norah Jones:No Easy Way Down

Your toy balloon has sailed
in the sky now,
but now it must fall to the ground.
Now your sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel.
There is no easy way down.

The view from the cliffs
must have been exciting,
and up to the peaks
you were bound.
Now you're stranded alone
and the past is unknown
and there is no easy way down.

And now it isn't very easy
when you find yourself on your own.
No, it isn't very easy
when each boat you take
is one more mistake,
there's no one to break your fall,
Lead you back home.

We all like to climb
to the heights of love. dear,
where our fantasy world can be found,
but you must know in the end
when it's time to descend
that there is no easy way down.

I know it isn't very easy,
when you find yourself out on your own.
No, it isn't very easy
when each road you take
is one more mistake,
there's no one to break
your fall
and lead you back home

We all like to climb
to the heights of love, dear,
where our fantasy world can be found,
but you must know in the end
when it's time to descend
that there is no easy way down.

There is no easy way down.
