[Verse 1]
Okay, I woke up in heaven today
She kissed me, I floated away (away)
Never felt anything so great
Alright, now I brace myself for the fight
Something must go wrong 'cause it's way too right
I'm light as a feather tonight (yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]
Cause I can't feel the ground
Someone let me down
I've never felt so high as I do now
It's too good to be true
I don't deserve you
I never felt the love strong enough to
Stop this world from spinning

[Verse 2]
And I see
Heaven when she looks at me
And her smile is the most amazing dream
And in her eyes I fall asleep
And I hope
Hope that she can see through the smoke
Of my imperfections into my soul
And my heart where she has control (she has control)

[Chorus]
Cause I can't feel the ground
Someone let me down
I've never felt so high as I do now
It's too good to be true
I don't deserve you
I never felt the love strong enough to
Stop this world from spinning

[Bridge]
Happiness like this will never last (will never last)
Turns into the memories of the past (memories of the past)
Here today and gone just as fast (gone just as fast)

[Chorus]
Cause I can't feel the ground
Someone let me down
I've never felt so high as I do now
It's too good to be true
I don't deserve you
I never felt the love strong enough to
Stop this world from spinning
Stop this world from spinning
Stop this world from spinning
