Jason Derulo
JR)
Like a shock, to my heart
When I saw you tonight
Like a dream come alive
For the very first time
When we touch, in the dark
Baby you're blowing my mind
Wish I could freeze you and me
In this moment in time (hey)
You got it, what I won't
Give it up, shawty
Step it up, for me
And I'll give you everything
All my life, all my love
I give you my fortune and fame
I'd even give you my name
Girl, you take me higher
Then I've ever been before
My feet don't touch the floor
We'll fly
The sky's the limit
The sky's the limit
Girl, you take me
Up up up up, up up up up
Girl, you take me up
You take me higher
The sky's the limit
The sky's the limit
When we dance, when we kiss
Doesn't get any better than this
How you shine, trapped in the spotlight
Finally mine, yeah
Baby let's go, let's get out of here
Baby let go, got nothing to fear
And now that we're here, let's disappear
Into the night (hey)
You got it, but I won't
Give it up, shawty
Step it up, for me
And I'll give you everything
All my life, all my love
I'd give you my fortune and fame
I'd even give you my name
Girl, you take me higher
Then I've ever been before
My feet don't touch the floor
We'll fly
The sky's the limit
The sky's the limit
Girl, you take me
Up up up up, up up up up
Girl, you take me up
You take me higher
The sky's the limit
The sky's the limit (oh oh oh oh)
My feet are on the ceiling (the celling)
And they don't wanna touch the ground anymore
Oh, what I feel (what a feeling), I can feel it (I can feel it)
Can you feel it, feel it, feel it
Girl, you take me higher (oh, yeah)
Then I've ever been before (been before)
My feet don't touch the floor
We'll fly
The sky's the limit
The sky's the limit
Girl, you take me
Up up up up, up up up up (up take me up, baby)
Girl, you take me up
You take me higher
The sky's the limit
The sky's the limit, oh
