Lyrics

English

Up in the air,
Lost in the sky,
Streaking through space,
Flying so high!

Caught by the wind,
Tumbling around,
What goes up may never come down!

Up in the air,
Lost in the sky,
Streaking through space,
Flying so high!

Caught by the wind,
Tumbling around,
What goes up may never come dah-ahh-own!

Brazilian Portuguese

Brazilian Portuguese	Translation
Alto, bem alto, tocar o céu Andar no espaço, brincar ao léu Voar bem alto sem nada a temer Poder subir e não mais descer! Alto, bem alto, tocar o céu Andar no espaço, brincar ao léu Voar bem alto sem nada a temer Poder subir e não mais descer!	High, very high, touching the sky Walking in space, playing in the open air To fly very high without anything to fear To be able to go up and never come down again! High, very high, touching the sky Walking in space, playing in the open air To fly very high without anything to fear To be able to go up and never come down again!
