Fly Me High

(album: Prelude - 1987)

I'm up to the eyes n' I love everyone
Today I could cry I could reach for the sun
I'm walking on air 'n' I'm here 'n' I'm there
I travel the sky but for what I don't care

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

I'm up 'n' I'm down 'n' I'm gone, I'm around
I'm driving along with no wheels on the ground
Hang on to me tight 'cause it doesn't last long
A few hours more and it'll be gone

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

I leave you behind on the streets in the gloom
I'm up here alone and there's plenty of room
You won't see me, I'll see you, I'm too fast
Whoops! Here I come, Now I'm gone. Now I'm past

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high

I'm up to the eyes and I love ev'ryone
Today I could cry I could reach for the sun
I'm walking on air 'n' I'm here 'n' I'm there
I travel the sky but for what I don't care

Fly me straight and fly me high
Fly me straight and fly me high
