Lyrics

Everyday I look up to the sky
World so bright since the time you arrived
Never felt like this before
Grounds not solid anywhere now
Wonder what's outside my door
How the future's gonna play out

Everyday I look up to the sky way up high
World so bright since the time you arrived
Never felt like this before
Grounds not solid anywhere now

All this time, I've been frightened to lose you
Love so bright that I'm scared of dying

Everyday I look up to the sky
World so bright since the time you arrived
Never felt like this before
Grounds not solid anywhere now
Wonder what's outside my door
How the future's gonna play out

All this time, I've been frightened to lose you
Love so bright that I'm scared of dying
