Lyrics

We could have touched the sky,
You've blown it all sky high.

Blown round by the wind,
Thrown down in a spin.
I gave you love,
I thought that we had made it to the top.
I gave you all, I had to give,
Why did it have to stop?

You've blown it all sky high
By telling me a lie
Without a reason why.
You've blown it all sky high.

You've blown it all sky high,
Our love had wings to fly.
We could've touched the sky.
You've blown it all sky high.
