Can't Come Down

Sam Phillips

I tried to pull the rope from the sky
It wouldn't come down so I started to climb
I've got great work to do
And I can't come down

I can't come down
For the shame I'm feeling
I can't come down
'Cause I can see from here
I got work to do
And I can't come down

I felt he with the hands can lead ya
And the eyes can't see
See you falling
Hopes are going out of the city lights
I take it apart
To the angels tonight
I've got great work to do
And I can't come down
Can't come down
