Name: Sky High
Duration: P00H04M44S
Description: This celebratory love song has a slight Americana feel with an escalating melody. Violin lines soar over a straight-ahead drum beat with frame drum and sitar accents, leading to my solo vocal, accompanied by dreamy background vocals. The verse builds to a super high climax in the chorus, and the instrumental middle section ends on a descending violin line before the final double chorus.

lyrics

VERSE 1:
You were blessed With the radiance of the sun
You possessed This silence so golden

LIFT 1:
But then you,
You captured a view
Of what life could be
With you and me,

LITHUANIAN BACKGROUND VOCALS:
Tada tu Pamatei Manę ir naują Vaizdą sudarei
(TRANSLATION: Then you saw me and formed a new vision)

CHORUS 1:
Fly -- Sky high --
We could shine
So purified, magnified
So divinely unified
As One.

LITHUANIAN BACKGROUND VOCALS:
Skrendam Aukštai Meilėje sujungti Amžinai
(TRANSLATION: We fly high, united in love forever)

VERSE 2:
So you began To move closer towards me
And so I ran, I didn’t understand
That this was my destiny

LIFT 2:
But then you,
You shone your light
Into my dark night
Till I could see
How we

CHORUS 2:
Fly -- Sky high …
