[Verse 1: Shaznay]
Lift me up, take me high
Take me higher than I've been before
I need time, time to find
The road to my destiny
Heaven help me
On a cloud to happiness is where I wanna be
Stealing my mind, I'm running outta time
So heaven lift me up

[Verse 2: Melanie]
Scared to laugh, scared to cry
For fear of my own contradiction
Maybe I should try
And cover my real reasons
For god sakes, heaven lift me up

[Pre-Chorus: Natalie & Nicole]
Wasn't supposed to be this way
Got too much of my own say
Never thought that I'd be standing

[Chorus: Natalie, Nicole & Melanie]
At the gates of heaven
At the gates of heaven
Heaven lift me up

[Post-Chorus: Shaznay, Melanie]
Come on and lift me
Lift me up, ooh whoa, yeah

[Verse 3: Natalie]
Take me high
Above the clouds where the birds fly
I'm feeling free
Let heaven do the work for me
Looking over this crazy city where we're livin'
I've seen it, done it
It's just the way I've been

[Pre-Chorus: All]
Wasn't supposed to be this way
Got too much of my own say
Never thought that I'd be standing

[Chorus: All]
At the gates of heaven
At the gates of heaven
Heaven lift me up

[Post-Chorus: Shaznay, Melanie]
Come on and lift me
Lift me up, ooh whoa, yeah

[Refrain: Shaznay, Melanie]
Take it, move it, feel like it's yours
Hoping you'll find what you're looking for
Baby, baby
What you lookin' for?
Take it, move it, feel like it's yours
Hoping you'll find what you're looking for
Baby, baby
What you lookin' for?

[Bridge: Shaznay, Melanie, Both]
I won't fail, I won't fail
I won't break, I won't break
No way, no way, no

[Chorus: All, Shaznay]
At the gates of heaven (never thought that I'd be standing)
At the gates of heaven (at the gates of heaven)
At the gates of heaven
At the gates of heaven (at the gates of heaven)
At the gates of heaven (never thought that I'd be standing)
At the gates of heaven (heaven lift me up)
Heaven lift me up

[Refrain: Shaznay, Melanie]
Take it, move it, feel like it's yours
Hoping you'll find what you're looking for
Baby, baby
What you lookin' for?
Take it, move it, feel like it's yours
Hoping you'll find what you're looking for
Baby, baby (heaven lift me up)
What you lookin' for?
Take it, move it, feel like it's yours (never thought that I'd be standing)
Hoping you'll find what you're looking for
Baby, baby
What you lookin' for?
