Kiss the Sky
Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hold my head up just enough to see the sky
And when we go we won't go slow we'll put up such a fight
When they fade into the dust and into ash
But all children know this pain will surely pass
Strong and wise and you are love
And When the tide it come you will float above and
And you will be one day exactly what you are
Just keep your head up high kiss your fist and touch the sky

Too late to keep the world from dying this time
Too late to spread the love you have
One day when we are ready for crying
One day I know that we'll be there

Too Late

The sound we hear it is our hearts they are the time
They're marching clear and swift the beat forever in our mind
It gives us hope it gives us strength you know to carry on
Keep fighting till the end and past the end you will be strong

Too late to keep the world from dying this time
Too late to spread the love you shared
And one day, ooh, we'll all be there

Yeah yeah yeah yeah





Yes we will

I hold my head up just enough to see the sky
And when we go we won't go slow, we'll put up such a fight
When they fade into the dust and into ash
But all the children know for sure this pain will surely pass
Strong and wise and you are love
And when the tide it comes you will float above
And you will be one day exactly what you are
Just keep your head held high, kiss your fist and touch the sky 

[Chorus]
Too late to keep the world from dying
It's not too late to spread the love you have 
One day when we are ready for crying
One day I know that we'll be there, little girl 

Too late

[Verse 2]
The sound we hear it is our hearts they are in time
They're marching clear and swift, the beat forever in our minds
It gives us hope, it gives us strength, you know, to carry on
Keep fighting till the end and past the end you will be strong

[Chorus 2]
Too late to keep the world from dying
It's not too late to spread the love you share
One day, we'll all be there, yeah

Yes we will
