When we take off
And leave the ground
Weâll be high
Above the tiny town
The little houses and their little yards
When we take off, and leave the ground
Weâll be high above the tiny town
Way above the trees
The people in their worlds upon the freeways
So high above the sea
As long as you hold my hand
As we watch the swift receding land, Iâll know no fear
And if my numberâs up today
Well then God will take me just this way
âCause I knew true peace while I was here
When we take off, and leave the ground
Weâll be so high above the tiny town
Way above the trees
The people in their worlds upon the freeways
So high above the sea
The sparkling golden sea
So high above the sea, yeah
Weâll be so high above the tiny town
Way above the trees
The people in their worlds upon the freeways
So high above the sea
The sparkling golden sea
Way above the sea, yeah
When we take off, and leave the ground
When we take off, and leave the ground
