==Lyrics== | == Lyrics == | ||
<pre>Ooh I wanna take you | |||
Up here where the air is clear | |||
Where clouds & sunlight paint the sky | |||
That is where I want to fly | |||
Ooh let me take you | |||
Beyond everything that we know | |||
everything that we know | |||
Up here it's beautiful | Up here it's beautiful | ||
Leave behind every sorrow | |||
Fly away | Fly away | ||
And we'll be flying in heaven | And we'll be flying in heaven | ||
And we'll be flying in heaven | We'll float through the sky | ||
And we are flying to heaven | And we'll be flying in heaven | ||
And we are flying to heaven | Love lifts us high | ||
And we are flying to heaven | |||
To find peace of mind | |||
And we are flying to heaven | |||
We're leaving the world behind | |||
If you ever wanna dream | If you ever wanna dream | ||
Come & I'll take you with me | |||
The sky, it has no boundaries | The sky, it has no boundaries | ||
When love gives you wings | |||
Away, far above the crystal clouds | Away, far above the crystal clouds | ||
Soaring tumbling through midair | |||
We'll see the troubles melt away | |||
We'll always want to be there | |||
In heaven.</pre> | |||

== Song Production Information == | |||
=== Sota Fujimori === | |||
For me, the image of heaven was the basis for this song. I listened around and imagined transformers in the sky flying above me, which gave me the idea for this. | |||
SYNTHESIZED was released recently, so there is a long version of this song. If you have time, please listen to it. | |||
The movie for the song is great, it has truly amazing images. The video and overall performance are great. | |||
It's now time to forget all your troubles, and let's go travel up to the sky!!! | |||
== Video Production Information == | |||
=== Taiyo Yamamoto === | |||
During the production of the video, I imagined flying swiftly, then soaring.<br> | |||
For Fly Above, I imagined a little knob flying. I felt that it was ideal for this video.<br> | |||
For the lyrics in the middle of the video, try singing with it if you feel lucky, or watch over someone's shoulder. | |||
