Such Great Heights
1. The Postal Service Lyrics

I am thinking it's a sign
I believe it's a sign that we have a deep connection.

That the freckles in our eyes
The small spots in our eyes reflect each other.

Are mirror images
Our freckles are perfectly reflecting each other.

And when we kiss they're perfectly aligned
When we kiss, our freckles align perfectly.

And I have to speculate
I can only guess.

That God Himself did make
That God created us.

Us into corresponding shapes
Our shapes correspond to each other like pieces of a puzzle.

Like puzzle pieces from the clay
Our shapes fit together like pieces of clay molded into a puzzle.

And true it may seem like a stretch
It might seem unlikely.

But it's thoughts like this that catch
These are the thoughts that stick with me.

My troubled head when you're away
When you're not here, I can't stop thinking about these thoughts.

And when I am missing you to death
When I miss you so much, it hurts me.

And when you are out there on the road
When you're on tour and away from me.

For several weeks of shows
For a few weeks of performances.

And when you scan the radio
When you're looking for something to listen to on the radio.

I hope this song will guide you home
I hope this song helps you find your way back to me.

They will see us waving from such great heights
People will see us waving from high places.

Come down now, they'll say
Other people might ask us to come down.

But everything looks perfect from far away
Things might seem perfect from a distance.

Come down now but we'll stay
We'll stay up high, even if others ask us to come down.

I tried my best to leave
I did my best to tell you this through a message.

This all on your machine
I left this all on your answering machine.

But the persistent beat
The constant rhythm of this song.

It sounded thin upon the sending
The sound of the song wasn't strong enough over the recording.

And that frankly will not fly
That simply won't do.

You'll hear the shrillest highs
You'll hear the highest and loudest parts of the song.

And lowest lows with the windows down
You'll also hear the lowest parts of the song if you roll down your windows.

And this is guiding you home
This song is leading you back to me.

They will see us waving from such great heights
People will still see us waving from high places.

Come down now they'll say
Just like before, others might ask us to come down.

But everything looks perfect from far away
Despite how things might look, we'll stay up high.

Come down now but we'll stay
We'll stay in our high place, even if others disagree.

They will see us waving from such great heights
This phrase is repeated to emphasize the image of us waving from high places.

Come down now
Once again, others might tell us to come down.
