Not Coming Down (David A. Thompson | Woody Overtones Music, ASCAP) This song is all about escaping, doesnât matter what from. Julie Elkins - lead vocal David Thompson - rhythm guitar Mary Lucey - harmony vocal Ivan Rosenberg - dobro Say goodbye to all my good friends And you can have this pair of shoes Where I'm going, I won't need them There's nothing left to lose Like the nightbirds you hear calling I'm flying up into the sky I've just been waiting for a west wind And it's blowing here tonight I'm not coming down My feet won't miss this ground Not coming down I'm going to race the late night airplanes Beneath a spiderweb of stars The frozen air will carry voices And far-away guitars Every morning you might see me Between pink and orange clouds You will know that I am happy High above this town I'm not coming down My feet won't miss this ground Not coming down When I die, I won't be falling That journey doesn't make me scared Heaven's just around the corner When you're flying way up there Say goodbye to all my good friends And you can have this pair of shoes Where I'm going, I won't need them There's nothing left to lose I'm not coming down My feet won't miss this ground Not coming down I will not be coming down Not coming down All rights reserved.
