Lyrics for Eight Miles High as interpreted by division2ronin

Eight Miles High Lyrics
Eight miles high and when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Signs in the street that say where you're going
Are somewhere just being their own

Nowhere is there warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain gray town known for its sound
In places small faces unbound


Round the squares huddled in storms
Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
Some living, some standing alone

The Byrds version blew my mind wide open. The Husker Du version made me cry.

the performance of this at the pinkpop festival in 1987 is pretty much the best thing that ever happened in music. Without a doubt the most impassioned vocal performance I've ever heard. Mould sounds like he just found out his mum had died or something.
