Higher, Love

(Can you take me ) Higher, Love

You are the pilot of my life
start your engines and make me fly
Higher than the clouds
that we see from here below
When we're up that high 'bove ground
no one will ever know

The view from up here is amazing
it's you that makes me see it
When you take me higher, Love
that's when I start to believe it

chorus

Can you take me higher, Love?
higher than I've ever been
Keep on taking me higher ,Love
now that I'm lighter than air again

Can you take me higher, Love?
help me to see the shining sun
Keep on taking me higher, love
with you a new day has begun

From up here the sky appears to be
a beautiful forever blue
Heavens not so far from here
it's only me and you

chorus
Can you take me higher, Love?
repeat.
