Take me to that place Higher Go, hold on Go (take me higher) (take me higher) In my mind I see the possibilities When it comes to love there are no boundaries Do you think that you and I can work it out That's what true love's about Baby we can find an answer if we look inside our hearts Love will be there waiting for us Baby we can rise above it if we leave our doubts behind us We can learn to fly high above us There's a place up in the sky Where the sun is shining Take me higher (take me higher) There's a place I long to be Where the birds are flying Take me higher (take me higher) See it on the news, there's trouble eveywhere Gotta reach out show somebody that you care It ain't good to let the bad news get us down Let's spread some love around Even if you want to go there To a place above the clouds Got to feel the power of love (power of love) Baby we can rise above it if we leave our doubts behind We can learn to fly high above us There's a place up in the sky Where the sun is shining Take me higher (take me higher) There's a place I long to be Where the birds are flying Take me higher (take me higher) [Repeat] You gotta reach out Feel the power of love Show somebody you care Take me... Oh baby Higher Take me higher There's a place up in the sky Where the sun is shining Take me higher (take me higher) There's a place I long to be Where the birds are flying Take me higher (take me higher) {Repeat: x 2] Take me higher Take me, take me Take me higher (take me higher) [Repeat: x 3] There's a place up in the sky Where the sun is shining Take me higher (take me higher) There's a place I long to be I want to go flying (take me higher)
