She Was Tall, She Was High - The Pretty Things

And as she weaves her way, through city streets

The dawn arrives

In concrete glades of metal grass

Steel cords are woven tight

But she is free, F… R…double E

She was tall, She was high

Lord she almost touched the sky

Today, I said today

She was tall, she was high

Lord she almost made me cry

Today, she spends her time

Beside grey lakes of lead she’s harnessed to

A kneeling form

Before the storm subsides, she’s flown

And leaves the body torn

But she is free, F… R…double E

She was tall, she was high …

E mentre si fa strada, per le strade della città

L'alba arriva

In radure di cemento di erba metallica

I cavi d'acciaio sono intrecciati strettamente

Ma lei è libera, F... R... doppia E

Era alta, era alta

Signore, ha quasi toccato il cielo

Oggi, ho detto oggi

Era alta, era alta

Signore, mi ha quasi fatto piangere

Oggi passa il suo tempo

Accanto ai grigi laghi di piombo a cui è imbrigliata

Una forma inginocchiata

Prima che la tempesta si plachi, è volata

E lascia il corpo lacerato

Ma lei è libera, F... R... doppia E

Era alta, era alta...
