Burt Bacharach
Walking Tall
[Verse 1]
I have a dream that everywhere I go
Almost everyone captures my eye
And they find me so fascinating
And indicating quite a keen interest in
A very special guy
[Chorus]
I'm walking tall, flying high
In the cold light of day
It's not so easy, I've gotta say
Oh, I'm so lonely
I'm feeling relatively blue
Oh, how I'd love a next to kin or two
There has to a place for me
Where I belong right now
I don't need a dynasty
A name to share, a heart to care
That's really old, then I'd be walking tall
[Verse 2]
I wonder who arranges all our lives, who sorts us out
Who chooses who
Oh, I think I'd like to have a brother or other
Close relations could be very nice
A touch of paradise
[Chorus]
I'm walking tall, flying high
In the cold light of day
It's not so easy, I've gotta say
Oh, I'm so lonely
I'm feeling relatively blue
Oh, how I'd love a next to kin or two
There has to a place for me
Where I belong right now
I don't need a dynasty
A name to share, a heart to care
That's really all, and I'd be walking tall
[Outro]
That's really all, that's all I need
A name to share, a heart to care
And then I'd be walking tall
