Way up High

Way up High (高高在上) - Kris Allen (克里斯·艾伦)

As the clouds go racing by and the stewardess brings my wine

There's a couple things that cross my mind today

Like how many swimming pools does it take to keep us cool

And are we meant to rule the skies anyway

Oh has the world gone wild

Oh cause from here it's a beautiful sight

Oh hope that I'm on time

And I wish you were by my side

These are my thoughts from way up high

Is the middle aged businessman making deals with his right hand

Or is he talking to his bride of fifteen years

And as I get closer to god is he falling more in love

Or are all my sins becoming that much clearer

Oh has the world gone wild

Oh cause from here it's a beautiful sight

Oh hope that I'm on time

And I wish you were by my side

These are my thoughts from way up high

And I can't wait to land and forget the place that I have been

To make room for all the memories we will make

But for now that thought will have to wait

If the pilots cannot see the state line boundaries

Then how do they know where to steer

And my father did his best and I'd say he was some success

Cause I'm the man he hopes he sees in the mirror

Oh has the world gone wild

Oh cause from here it's a beautiful sight

Oh hope that I'm on time

And I wish you were by my side

These are my thoughts from way up high
