Too Good For This World lyrics - Crowded House

Go quickly my dear

Fly like the wind

Look at you chief

Your wings are magnificent

The air is alive

There's a mob set on violence

There must be a way

To escape from the follies of men

I may never see sailor again

If you see her, tell her I love her

Maybe one day it will all make sense

But if I have to leave her

I must be too good for this world

I must believe that I can reach the sky

My feathers are flowing

And my wings unfurled

I must be too good for this world

The dream was so real

It was truly divine

We made heavenly love

I saw God for a moment

I would if I could

But I can't reach him now

He's been carried away

On a horse with his head in the clouds

My sailor, my island, my dream

There will always be blue skies above her

She was just the right size for me

But if I have to leave her

I must be too good for this world

I must believe that I can reach the sky

My feathers are flowing and my wings unfurled

I must be too good for this world

These little things are meant to try us

These little wings were meant to fly

These little things are sent to try us

These little wings were meant to fly

I gave myself to love

It seemed so simple

Ah, but I only made things worse

And goodness is a curse

I must be too good for this world

I must believe that I can reach the sky

My feathers are flowing and my wings unfurled

I must be too good for this world

These little things are sent to try us

These little wings were meant to fly

These little things are sent to try us

These little wings were meant to fly
