    Lyrics:
    I Would Search This World For You, Even Though You Can't Imagine
    I Want To Take You To China, I Want To Kiss You In Rome
    I'd Use Rocket Ships, Mine Sweepers, Transistor Radio Receivers
    I Want To Hold You, Want To Hold You Too Tight
    Gonna Break Every Bone Of Everybody In Sight
    When I'm Flying So High (Flying So High)
    Like A Bird In The Sky
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    But You're Dragging Me Down Down Down Down
    I Hear Your Talking And Whispers, Pale Drawn Out Nails And Fingers
    I'm Seeing Shapes Behind The Curtain
    You're Looking Older But You Can't Be Certain
    You're So Tired (You're So Tired) But You Just Can't Sleep
    You're So Shallow (You're So Shallow) But You're In Too Deep
    Your Hands Shaking, Body's Lifting, Body's Mine
    I Know, I Know, 'Cause I Told You So
    When I'm Flying So High (Flying So High)
    Like A Plane In The Sky
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    But You're Dragging Me Down Down Down Down
    Oh, You're Dragging Me Down, Oh You're Dragging Me Down
    Drag, Drag, Dragging Me Down, Oh You're Dragging Me Down
    Oh, You're Dragging Me, Dragging Me, Dragging Me, Oh
    (You're Dragging Me Down)
    (Oh) I Never Can Quite Remember, (Oh) Was It June, July Or September ?
    (Oh) That You Sold Your Soul To Me, To Me
    (Oh) That You Sold Your Soul To Me, To Me
    When I'm Flying So High (Flying So High)
    Like A Storm In The Sky
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    But You're Dragging Me Down, Yeah
    When I'm Flying So High (Flying So High)
    Like A Star In The Sky
    But You're Dragging Me Down
    But You're Dragging Me Down
    But You're Dragging Me Down Down Down Down

      Learned to accept it. Can't imagine how it affected Craig. My thoughts and prayers for him.

      ​@@bobafetting6373well said. The Inspirals are at best a tribute act now. No Martyn Walsh, No Craig Gill RIP and No Tom Hingley the man who is singing this banger and every hit and prime album of theirs. Honestly they are just diabolical now

    Loved and still love this stuff. After the wilderness years of relentless Stock Aitken and Waterman 1980s pap, the whole indie scene was a breath of fresh air. It was just what I was looking for.
    I was 18 when this came out. Young, free, fit and healthy with a few quid to spend and some good mates to do it with. Oh happy days......
