Click Yo' Heels

Ben Harper · Other Songs - Ben Harper

Come on baby click yo' heels

Let me know our love is real

Cause we're a long way from anywhere

But I can really feel it

I've been up, I've been down

I've been tossed all around

But I always seem to come down on my feet

So don't think I'm crazy if I wanna sing

'bout the good things life has in store

Cause we're a long way from anywhere

But I can really feel it

A long way from anywhere

Come on babe let down your hair

Let me know you really care

Cause we're a long way from anywhere

But I'm ready for your dare

I remember a man in an upstate town

Said, "you can't get there form here"

We all took it as a joke but it held like smoke

Now it's ringing in both my ears

I look up babe see the sky is rollin'

Time has come to carry on

Cause we're a long way from anywhere

But I can really feel it

We're a long way from any town

But I think we'll come around

I really feel alright

I really feel alright

Cause we're a long way from anywhere

Tonight
