[Verse 1]
I've climbed so high since you were mine
It's a long way, a long way down
Safe in the sky, lost in your eyes
But it's a long way, a long way down
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Don't let me fall
[Chorus]
If you're not in love
Just pretend it's enough
And if you're leaving this behind
Just don't break this heart of mine
Cause you keep lifting me up
And lifting me up
Now you've built me up this high
Please, don't leave me on
Leave me on cloud nine
[Verse 2]
If the promises made ever should fade
It'd be a long way, a long way down
Foundations are laid but I'm so afraid
That I'd never replace what we found
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Don't we have it all??
[Chorus]
If you're not in love
Just pretend it's enough
And if you're leaving this behind
Just don't break this heart of mine
Cause you keep lifting me up
And lifting me up
Now you've built me up this high
Please, don't leave me on
Leave me on cloud nine
[Bridge]
Hold me out of the darkness
To leave me now would be heartless
Cause I'm higher than I've ever been with you
Think about all that we've been through
I hope you don't have it in you
Cause you give me strength with everything you do
[Chorus]
If you're not in love
Just pretend it's enough
And if you're leaving this behind
Just don't break this heart of mine
You keep lifting me up
And lifting me up
Now you've built me up this high
Please, don't leave me on
Leave me on cloud nine
