Lyrics

Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)
Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)
Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)
And I really do believe
(Yeah) I really do believe
There's a Heaven somewhere
(There's a Heaven somewhere)
Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)
Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)
Up above my head
(Up above my head)
I hear music in the air
(I hear music in the air)
And I really do believe
(I really do believe)
Yes, I really do believe
(I really do believe)
Yes, I really do believe
I really do believe
There's a Heaven somewhere
(Up above my head)
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
Yeah, I believe
Yes, I believe
Yes, I believe
Yes, I believe
Yes, I believe
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yes, I believe
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe
I believe, I believe
Up above my head
