Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can feel it in my whole body
No air, gravity can't breath
What you do to me feels so right
I'm gonna double it and give it back twice
No plans gon be messed up not night, baby
Take my hand
I can hardly stand
Hold on to me
Don't look down
Baby we're soarin above the ground
I don't wanna leave so
No I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
No, I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
No I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
No I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
[Ohh, oh, oh, oh, oh]x7
Yea-yeeea!
When you lookin to me like that
I think I just react
How could I ever hold in back
Not matter how hard I try
I can fight the butterflys
You keep me up all night
Like that
Take my hand
Don't let me go
I can hardly stand
Hold on to me
Don't look down
Baby we're soarin above the ground
I don't wanna leave so
No I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go

[Ohh, oh, oh, oh, oh]x7
Yea-yeeea!
Let you let me go
You take me there
When you put your fingers
In my hair
It's crazy, yeah
But I don't care
'Cuz you're with me
Take my hand
Don't let me go

Hold on to me
Don't look down
Baby we're soarin above the ground

Let you let me go
No, I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
No I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
No I'm not gonna let you
Let you let me go
[Ohh, oh, oh, oh, oh]x7
