Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Up above my head, I hear music in the air

Up above my head, I hear music in the air

Up above my head, I hear music in the air

I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

[Verse 2]

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear singin' in the air (Singin' in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear singin' in the air (Singin' in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear singin' in the air (Singin' in the air)

I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

[Verse 3]

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear shoutin' in the air (Shoutin' in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear shoutin' in the air (Shoutin' in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear shoutin' in the air (Shoutin' in the air)

I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

Go ahead, fiddle man

[Verse 4]

All in my home (All in my home)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

All in my home (All in my home)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

Oh, I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

[Verse 5]

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

That I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

[Verse 6]

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

Up above my head (Up above my head)

I hear music in the air (Music in the air)

And I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

[Verse 7]

Yes, I really do believe, I really do believe there's a Heaven somewhere

Heaven somewhere
