And you proved my fan ta sies of love could real ly be.

Let’s (D)go to a place on ly lov ers go,

We’re (Em7)float ing a way, and, ooh, this feels so cra zy.

Oh, this love is blaz in’.

And ba by, we’re so high, walk in’ on cloud

Whoa.

May be lat er we can (Gmaj7)go up to the moon

or sail a mong the stars be (Em7)fore the night is through.

And when morn ing comes, we’ll see the (Gmaj7)sun is not so far.

And we can’t get much clos er to God than where we are.

We’ll (D)go to a place on ly lov ers go,

We’re (Em7)float ing a way, and, ooh, this feels so cra zy.

Oh, this love is blaz in’.

And ba by, we’re so high, walk in’ on cloud
