Let′s ride, ten miles up

Just inside, the stratosphere

More sky, more blue jetsStream by, you're gonna love it here

Let′s fly, ten miles up

Just outside, the atmosphere

We'll climb, oh, straight up

Set aside, your rational fear

Goodbye, oh, little cruel world

Never again will I ever be grounded on Earth or be bound by the hurt in you

Blue eyes, offer a brave new world

Out in the starry skies of paradise found

As we rise (as we rise), so far above

Our little lights, in miniature

And even your eyes can be transfixed

Knock, knock, knock it down, your heavenly door

One mile in, it keeps pulling me back

Have you got to ever leave?

Higher now, there's no turning back

Gone in the blink of an eye

Goodbye, oh, little cruel world

Never again will I ever be grounded on Earth or be bound by the hurt in you

Blue eyes offer a brave new world

Out in the starry skies of paradise found

Lift me off the ground

Then I look down

Sing a sad goodbye

This city is a torn town

Left the law behind

Straight up for miles

Or you can hang down

An alternative never given very much for you

Never be ten miles high

We′ll defy (we′ll defy), right by your side (right by your side)

Come fill your eyes (come fill your eyes), with its majesty (with its majesty)

These tears you'll cry (these tears you′ll cry), in the water mist (in the water mist)

Leave it all behind (leave it all behind), and come with me

Goodbye, cruel world

Never again will I ever be grounded on Earth or be bound by the hurt in you

Blue eyes, brave new world

Out in the starry skies of paradise found
