"Up This High"
(Allison Moorer / Doyle Lee Primm / Doyle Primm)

I'm skipping across the stars
Hopping from moon to moon
Higher than a kite's been before
Made my way to Mars, Venus and Neptune
If I was scared of heights, I ain't no more

Up this high in outer space
Old cloud nine looks commonplace
Floating way down there in the blue
Up this high at heaven's door
Worlds collide and comets soar
Your love lets me fly up this high

A lot of astronauts have left the planet Earth
But they use rocket ships to kiss the sky
I don't have what they got
But I sail the universe
Every time your lips are kissing mine

Up this high in outer space
Old cloud nine looks commonplace
Floating way down there in the blue
Up this high at heaven's door
Worlds collide and comets soar
Your love lets me fly up this high

Back when I was green
You could find me chooglin' smoke
But when I got off I never left the ground
Now you can't find me unless you own a telescope
And I don't wanna ever come back down

Up this high in outer space
Old cloud nine looks commonplace
Floating way down there in the blue
Up this high at heaven's door
Worlds collide and comets soar
Your love lets me fly up this high

I'm high
