Jefferson Airplane

Ballad Of You & Me & Poon

If you were a bird and you lived very high,
You'd lean on the wind when the breeze came by,
Say to the wind as it took you away,
"That's where I wanted to go today;"
And I do know that I need to have you around;
And I do know that I need to have you around;
Love like a mountain springtime,
Flashing through the rivers of my mind;
It's what I feel for you;

You and me go walking south
And we see all the world around us,
The colors blind my eyes and my mind to all but you,
And I do know that I need to have you around,
And I do, I do know that I need to have you around.

I have a house where I can go
When there's too many people around me;
I can sit and watch all the people
Down below goin' by me;
Halfway down the stairs is a stair
Where I sit and think about you and me;
But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin' by?
Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die,
When I die, when I'm high, when I die?

If you were a cloud and you sailed up there,
You sail on water as blue as air,
You'd see me here in the fields and say,
"Doesn't the sky look green today?"
But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin' by?
Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die,
When I die, when I'm high, when I die, die, die, die, die?
