Higher

"Open wide, and stay open wide
it's a blue-streak, life
but live as if you'll never die"

And whether wrong or right
It's an axiom I can't deny
And I'm beginning to like
The thrill and perils of learning to fly

Some moments are over way too fast,
and I get swept away with them every time
I close my eyes and I get,

Higher and higher
to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher
Higher and higher
to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher

Morning light
Hits like a dagger in a waking eye
But at least I'm alive,
With her asleep at my side

Then she smiles and sighs,
And I'm swimming in her opening eyes,
It's a rising tide that I'm content to drown in
To drown inside

These moments are over way too fast,
and I get swept away with them every time,
I close my eyes and I get

Higher and higher to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher
Higher and higher to the borders of Elysium
Higher and higher

I wanna be far away and long beyond the apogee
I wanna feel air without the hindrance of gravity
I want me to stall, and be out of control
I'm fearless to fall, cause I know it won't be long
before I'm thrown

Higher and higher

And love, love is a catapult
Your love, your love is a catapult
Your love, your love is
Higher and higher
Till I fade away
