Kris Allen - Way Up High lyrics

As the clouds go racing by and
The stewardess brings my wine
There's a couple things that
Cross my mind today
Like how many swimming pools does it
Take to keep us cool?
And are we meant to rule the skies anyway?

Oh, has the world gone wild?
Oh, 'cause from here, it's a beautiful sight
Oh, hope that I'm on time
And I wish you were by my side
These are my thoughts from way up high

Is the middle-aged businessman making deals
With his right hand or is he talking to his
Bride of fifteen years?
And as I get closer to God
Is He falling more in love?
Or are all my sins
Becoming that much clearer?

Oh, has the world gone wild?
Oh, 'cause from here, it's a beautiful sight
Oh, hope that I'm on time
And I wish you were by my side
These are my thoughts from way up high

And I can't wait to land and forget
The place that I have been
To make room for all the
Memories we will make
But for now, that thought will have to wait

If the pilots cannot see
The state line boundaries
Then how do they know where to steer?
And my father did his best
And I'd say he was some success
Cause, I'm the man he hopes
He sees in the mirror

Oh, has the world gone wild?
Oh, 'cause from here, it's a beautiful sight
Oh, hope that I'm on time
And I wish you were by my side
These are my thoughts from way up high
