[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Passion, take the wind
And break me from this tie
We're mortals on the Earth
Oh, but God's up in the sky
I haven't got a clue
I haven't got a thing
But what I give to you
Is all that I could bring
[Refrain]
Woo-ooh, woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
[Verse 2]
I'll give you all my time
That's everything to me
You know my only crime
Is this flight of fantasy
[Refrain]
Woo-ooh, woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
[Chorus]
Because I've nothing else here for you
And just because it's easier than the truth
Oh, if there's nothing else that I can do, I'll fly for you
Ooh, because I've nothing else here for you
And just because it's easier than the truth
Oh, if there's nothing else that I can do, I'll fly for you
[Verse 1]
Passion, take the wind
And break me from this tie
We're mortals on the Earth
Oh, but God's up in the sky
I haven't got a clue
I haven't got a thing
But what I give to you
Is all that I could bring
[Refrain]
Woo-ooh, woo-ooh
Woo-ooh
[Chorus]
Because I've nothing else here for you
And just because it's easier than the truth
Oh, if there's nothing else that I can do, I'll fly for you
Ooh, because I've nothing else here for you
And just because it's easier than the truth
Oh, if there's nothing else that I can do, I'll fly for you
I'll fly for you, ooh, I'll fly
[Bridge]
I'm just an average boy
You're more than an average girl
And hen you sing to me the "shoo-be-doos", you sing so well
And don't you know that when I'm under you, I'm overjoyed?
[Chorus]
Because I've nothing else here for you
And just because it's easier than the truth
Oh, if there's nothing else that I can do, I'll fly for you
Oh, because I've nothing else here for you
And just because it's easier than the truth
Oh, if there's nothing else that I can do, I'll fly for you
I'll fly for you, I'll fly for you
[Outro]
