Heidi Berry - Hand over HeadLyrics

When she flew into town Her feet never met the ground But I saw her face Like a bright, proud flower But something around the eyes Shadows, that put the lie to her laughing voice And those brave, brave words Some of us live too hard Some of die to young And some are destroyed by what they might have done I knew a man long ago A hermit who held no hope In his withered heart Or his sad eyes He lived a life of counterfeit Pretending his life was sweet Let others take chances He was too afraid to make Some of us live too hard Some of die to young And some are destroyed by what they might have done So she flew out again Waved to the crowd and then Hand over head She was gone Some of us live too hard Some of die to young And some are destroyed by what they might have done
