I wish you could lift me up out of this place We would fly to paradise and dip our toes into crystal blue waters We'd swim with colorful schools of fish We'd watch a sunset in every city Then we'd star gaze in the country I wish we could waltz out of here Unseen, unheard I need to escape this black and white I need to see color again My eyes crave the sights unseen My ears crave the music unheard My body craves the adventure My heart craves it with you So lift me up, up and away From this place To a home far away Where the city lights gleam And the colors are vivid All will be made new
