[Verse 1]
Wee hours on the move
All eyes in the night
Are concentrated and glowing
An explosion effect
[Verse 2]
Walking on the roof
Of the hi-rise on the moon
You never go where you're going
But, for once, there's room
[Chorus]
You're much harder to place
Now that you are floating untethered in space
Unfolded into madrigals
Unfolded into madrigals
What you want is madness, though
What you want is madness, though
[Verse 3]
Walking on the roof
Of a hi-rise here to stay
Experiment in levitation
A psychic left to pray
[Chorus]
You're much harder to place
Now that you are floating untethered in space
Unfolded into madrigals
Unfolded into madrigals
What you want is madness, though
What you want is madness, though
Hi-Rise was written by A.C. Newman.
Hi-Rise was produced by A.C. Newman & John Collins.
The New Pornographers released Hi-Rise on Tue Aug 26 2014.
Newman said Hi-Rise was inspired by Gerry Rafferty.
