Leslie Stevens 12 Feet High Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Spent all day working out in the weeds
Over my head in the mustard seeds
Oh, how it goes over my head
Twelve feet high over my head

[Verse 2]
Well, I try to keep the weakness from my poetry
But it sneaks back in just like a honeybee
Oh, how it goes over my head
Twelve feet high over my head

[Chorus 1]
Oh, and Darling, I've been thinking
Oh, and Darling, I've been drinking
I've been sinking low
I thought you should know

[Verse 3]
Spent all night staring up at shooting stars
Didn't even notice they were only cars
Oh, 'cause it goes over my head
Twelve feet high over my head

[Chorus 2]
Oh, and Darling, I've been frowning
Oh, and Darling, I've been drowning
Drowning all of my sorrows
In our lost tomorrows

[Verse 4]
When the honey's down
Oh, it's down at the backbreaking bottom
Well you should know
You got to smoke 'em if you want 'em
Smoke 'em if you got 'em

[Chorus 1]
Oh, and Darling, I've been thinking
Oh, and Darling, I've been drinking
I've been sinking low
I thought you should know

[Outro]
I've been sinking low
I thought you should know
I thought you should know
You should know, little darling
Darling
