Take It To The Sky - Remastered Lyrics
Earth (Feat. Wind & Fire)
Lyrics
Maurice White, Garry Glenn & Larry Dunn
I remember when, as a child,
I used to stop and stare
Looking in the sky, wondering
How, did my life compare
So I found thru my desire
I could take it to the sky--baby
Now, my heart can fly
Time moved on and then
life and I became the best of firends
There's no limit to
all the smiles in life, that's in store for you
So I found thru my desire
I could take it to the sky--Baby
Now, my heart can fly
Life is a word, you live
Strong as the vibes, you give
Living in happiness, is knowing
That you've been blessed
Learning to fly, it seems
Is learning to live your dreams
Take it to the sky
Learn the reason why, Baby
Then your heart can fly
