Flying High
Falco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We got together to turn the world around
Searchin' within us to find a new sound
We climb high up to the sky
We don't wait and see

'Cause after all we could fall and not find the key

You and I flyin' high
We climb high
High up to the sky
You and I flyin' high
Once in a while we should try flyin' high

We got together to turn from the ground
Searchin' for things nobody found
We climb high up to the sky
We don't wait and see
'Cause after all we could fall and not see the key

You and I flyin' high
We climb high
High up to the sky
You and I flyin' high
Once in a while we should try flyin' high

Movin' together we can't stand
Time isn't wasted playin' the game
All the high feelin' isn't a fame
We're flyin' high
We hope in our name

Once in a while we all should try flyin' high

Movin' together we can't stand
Time isn't wasted playin' the game
All the high feelin' isn't a fame
We're flyin' high
We hope in our name

Once in a while we all should try flyin' high

You and I flyin' high
We climb high
High up to the sky




You and I flyin' high
Once in a while we should try flyin' high

Falco's perfect voice, his winning smile, excellent pronunciation of English words. Those sweet bad boy looks. Very captivating performance even after all those years. Sunny Pfleger is a nice friend you got there too. Nice rock n' roll days.

He was/is the true king of Rock N' Roll for sure. The greatest and truly under appreciated.
