You picked me up, held me high.
Together with wings, we will fly.
You gave me hope, you gave me dreams.
You taught me nothing is as seems.
But this love always holds true.
When everything else has fallen through.
You have me a heart,
And, loved me right from the start.
So here I stand, just hold my hand.
Tonight we'll take flight,
Off into the night.
