Broad And High

BROAD AND HIGH - Written by Carroll Bryant

It's just a feeling

But it can make you cry

No effort is worth your flawless time

She said to meet her on the south side

Somewhere on the corner of Broad and High 

That was three hours ago

I'm the fool, I know 

Still I stand here with all of this pain 

That was the way of my love

Never give or even receive enough 

Still I stand here in the falling of the rain 

It's just the air in my lungs

But without it I would die

No meaning can be found outside of my mind 

She said to greet her on the far side 

Somewhere on the corner of Broad and High 

That was a lifetime ago

Back when the forecast was snow

Still I stand here taking all of the blame 

That was the way of her touch

I fell victim to it too much 

Still I stand here without any shame 

Only I can give you the power

So shower me with your kisses and lies

Hour by hour 

Your evil heart devours me by the moment

On Broad Street and High

It's just a notion 

But it can blurry your eyes

No shadow is indifferent in the deepest of nights

She said to meet her on the dark side

Somewhere on the corner of Broad and High 

That was forever ago

When I was caught up in the flow

Still I stand here destroying my name

That was the way of my love

Always swept away by the flood

Still I stand here playing the game

Still I stand here in the falling of the rain
