Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I’m letting go because you’re showing me how
We’re burning slow we’re burning bright
You’re taking me to such great heights
And all I really need is you to touch my body body
And all I really need is you to touch my body
‘Cause when we moved our lips like that
It felt like a heart attack
Left this world but I’m not sorry
Oh I’ve been living up here so high
With the trees and with the birds and butterflies
Fantasy yeah you and me here in my eyes
Hold on boy you’re taking over my mind
Taking over my mind
Yeah I’ve been living up here so high
With the trees and with the birds and butterflies
Fantasy yeah you and me here in my eyes
Hold on boy you’re taking over my mind
Taking over my mind
I’ve been living up here so high
I’ve never had it like we’re having it now
Too fucking high I don’t remember the ground
I’m feeling up on all this light
How did we get to such great heights
It was like I left my body
And there were lights, mostly green
I’ve been living up here so high high
Oh I’ve been living up here so high
With the trees and with the birds and butterflies
Fantasy yeah you and me here in my eyes
Hold on boy you’re taking over my mind
Taking over my mind
Yeah I’ve been living up here so high
With the trees and with the birds and butterflies
Fantasy yeah you and me here in my eyes
Hold on boy you’re taking over my mind
Taking over my mind
I’ve been living up here so high
It was like I left my body
And there were lights, mostly green
