Lose your fear, 'cause there is no one here
Lose your fear cause there is no one here
Do what you want to do there's nobody stopping you, no

Give yourself and let the music take you far
Give yourself and let the music take you far
Then you will know who you are
Then you will know who you are.


Baby, getting higher
Baby, gettiing higher, we're getting higher
We're getting higher
Moving with the vibe,

Let the rhythm make you fly.

You are the one, Baby, isn't this fun tonight.
You are the one! Baby, isn't this fun

Whoa-oh oh ohhhh, whoa-oh

Girl, give it up go and run away
To the arms of a magic day

Lose your fear cause there is no one here
Do what you want to do, there's nobody stopping you, no
Give yourself and let the music take you far
Then you will know who you are.

Baby, gettiing higher, we're getting higher
Moving with the vibe,
Let the rhythm make you fly.
You are the one, Baby, isn't this fun tonight.

You and I
I know we can move if we try
You know this is how it should be...

Baby getting higher, we're getting higher
Open up your eyes,
Everyday is a surprise
You are the one, Baby, the only one tonight.

Baby getting higher, we're getting higher,
Start again from here
And an new you will appear
You are the one, Baby, isn't this fun tonight.
