Me, drink from me, drink from me (oh I-)
Shoot across the symphony (oh I-, oh I-)
That we shoot across the sky
Drink from me, drink from me (I-, oh I-, oh I-)
That we shoot across the (I'm feeling drunk and high)
(So high, so high)
That we shoot across the s- (drink from)
Oh, angel sent from up above
You know you make my world light up
When I was down, when I was hurt
You came to lift me up
Life is a drink and love's a drug
Oh, now I think I must be miles up
When I was a river, dried up
You came to rain a flood
You said, "Drink from me, drink from me"
When I was so thirsty
Pour on a symphony
Now I just can't get enough
Put your wings on me, wings on me
When I was so heavy
Pour on a symphony
When I'm low, low, low, low
I-, oh I-, oh I-
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high (so high), so high (so high)
Oh I-, oh I-, oh I-
Now I'm feeling drunk and high
So high (so high), so high (so high)
(Woo)
(Ooh)
Oh, angel sent from up above
I feel you coursing through my blood
Life is a drink, your love's about
To make the stars come out
Put your wings on me, wings on me
When I was so heavy
Pour on a symphony
When I'm low, low, low, low
I-, oh I-, oh I-
Got me feeling drunk and high
So high, so high (so high)
Oh I-, oh I-, oh I-
Now I'm feeling drunk and high
So high (so high), so high (so high)
I-, oh I-, oh I-
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
So high, so high
I-, oh I-, oh I-
Now I'm feeling drunk and high
So high (so high), so high (so high)
That we shoot across the sky
That we shoot across the
That we shoot across the sky
That we shoot across the (that we shoot, yeah)
That we shoot across the sky
That we shoot across the
That we shoot across the sky
That we shoot across the
Benim, benden iç, benden iç (oh I-)
Senfoniyi aşarak fırlat (oh I-, oh I-)
Benden iç, benden iç (I-, oh I-, oh I-)
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey (Sarhoş ve yüksek hissediyorum)
(Çok yüksek, çok yüksek)
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız s- (içmekten)
Ah, yukarıdan gönderilmiş melek
Biliyorsun dünyamı aydınlatıyorsun
Düştüğümde, incindiğimde
Beni kaldırmak için geldin
Hayat bir içecek ve aşk bir ilaç
Ah, şimdi sanırım kilometrelerce yukarıdayım
Bir nehir olduğumda, kuruduğumda
Beni sel yağmuruna boğdun
Dedin ki, “Benden iç, benden iç”
Çok susamışken
Bir senfoni dök
Şimdi sadece yetemiyorum
Kanatlarını üzerime koy, kanatlarını üzerime koy
Çok ağır olduğumda
Bir senfoni dök
Düşük olduğumda, düşük, düşük, düşük
I-, oh I-, oh I-
Beni sarhoş ve yüksek hissettirdi
Çok yüksek (çok yüksek), çok yüksek (çok yüksek)
Oh I-, oh I-, oh I-
Şimdi sarhoş ve yüksek hissediyorum
Çok yüksek (çok yüksek), çok yüksek (çok yüksek)
(Woo)
(Ooh)
Ah, yukarıdan gönderilmiş melek
Kanımda aktığını hissediyorum
Hayat bir içecek, aşkın yakında
Yıldızları ortaya çıkaracak
Kanatlarını üzerime koy, kanatlarını üzerime koy
Çok ağır olduğumda
Bir senfoni dök
Düşük olduğumda, düşük, düşük, düşük
I-, oh I-, oh I-
Beni sarhoş ve yüksek hissettirdi
Çok yüksek, çok yüksek (çok yüksek)
Oh I-, oh I-, oh I-
Şimdi sarhoş ve yüksek hissediyorum
Çok yüksek (çok yüksek), çok yüksek (çok yüksek)
I-, oh I-, oh I-
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
Çok yüksek, çok yüksek
I-, oh I-, oh I-
Şimdi sarhoş ve yüksek hissediyorum
Çok yüksek (çok yüksek), çok yüksek (çok yüksek)
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey (fırlattığımız şey, evet)
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
Gökyüzüne fırlattığımız şey
