I’m looking up, no more looking down
I’m staring straight ahead, no more glancing around
I’ve been far away from you for far too long
You called me and I found my way
And now I sing this song
I’m gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
Gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
You’re worth it all, all I have to give
I’d lay down my life, you are the reason I live
I’ve kept everything from you, but I’ve done wrong
Let me open up to you
And show you my love’s strong
I’m gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
Gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love…
I’m gonna lift our love up high
Lift it above and beyond the sky
Gonna live and show you why
My life is your life
Gonna lift our love up high
I’m gonna leave the world behind
Gonna live and show you why
My life is your life
I’m gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
Gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
I’m gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
Gonna lift you up
No matter how high
I need to show you that
I’m in love with you
With you
With you
I’m in love with you
With you
With you, with you
You’ll know that I’m in love
