I've always looked at you from a distance
As something I could never have
And I've realized my way of existence
Could one day be what holds you back
And looking in your eyes
Can make me smile and still feel sad
'Cause you've got one big bright shining future
Baby, I can't give you that

'Cause I'm a dead ender, big spender
I've been known to get on a bender
Yeah, that might be me
But I'll always be in love with you
And I'm a high flyer, live wire
Tight rope walker and a rainbow rider
Yeah, that might be me
But I'll always be in love with you
I'll always be in love with you

I might drift down to some place warm
And find a hideaway do the island thing
I've always wanted my own private ocean
To sit beside and float my dreams
Maybe someday I'll find that secret
The whole world's looking for
Girl, if I had you there ain't nothing anywhere
That I'd want anymore

'Cause I'm a dead ender, big spender
I've been known to get on a bender
Yeah, that might be me
But I'll always be in love with you
And I'm a high flyer, live wire
Tight rope walker and a rainbow rider
Yeah, that might be me
But I'll always be in love with you
I'll always be in love with you

And looking in your eyes
Can make me smile and still feel sad
'Cause you've got one big bright shining future
Baby, I can't give you that

'Cause I'm a dead ender, big spender
I've been known to get on a bender
Yeah, that might be me
But I'll always be in love with you
And I'm a high flyer, live wire
Tight rope walker and a rainbow rider
Yeah, that might be me
But I'll always be in love with you
I'll always be in love with you
