There's a river flowing up into the sky

To the sky, to the sky

There are trees with human heads parading by

Sailing by, sailing by

And the hands of giants hold the gates

In the clouds, in the clouds

Up there where the dragons fly

Round and round, round and round

Straight to your head

You stop me from growing up, you show me

Straight to your head

You keep me from shutting down, believe me

I'll never leave you, it doesn't matter what you do

'Cause I can go straight to your head

To be close to you

Outside in the night the burglar creeps

Oh he creeps, yeah he creeps

In the flowers behind the house the princess sleeps

Oh she sleeps, yeah she sleeps

In the land between the lamp-posts

Everything is black

And here we come a-stepping

On the cracks, on the cracks

Straight to your head

You stop me from growing up, you show me

Straight to your head

You keep me from shutting down, believe me

I'll never leave you, it doesn't matter what you do

'Cause I can go straight to your head

To be close to you

I - used to only see

What I was looking for

And I - used to only hear

What I'd heard before

Now I'm looking all around

And now I'm walking

Walking downtown

Straight to your head

Straight to your head

I'll never leave you, it doesn't matter what you do

'Cause I can go straight to your head

I can go straight to your head

I can go straight to your head

To be close to you
