To the Sky Lyrics
[Verse 1]
One perfect morning I was all alone
Listening to the blaze of summer
Drifting, I was falling, I was floating in a golden haze
Breathing in the sky blue sounds of memories of other days
[Pre-Chorus]
And in my dreams I was a child
Flowers in my mouth and in my eyes
And I was floating through the colours of a sky
Up to the stars and angels
[Chorus]
Up, up, up to heaven
Up, up, up forever
Up, up, up to heaven
Up, up, up forever
[Verse 2]
Turning in my climb I looked down on a lake
And traced upon the water there I saw your face
And sang in recollection of the times we shared
Then pushed on ever upward to the sky
[Pre-Chorus]
And in my dreams I was a child
Flowers in my mouth and in my eyes
And I was floating through the colours of a sky
Up to the stars and angels
[Chorus]
Up, up, up to heaven
Up, up, up forever
Up, up, up to heaven
Up, up, up forever

What did The Cure say about "To the Sky"?
Robert Smith said in a fanzine:
“To The Sky” was an unused track from the Kiss Me sessions; I don’t particularly like it (that’s why it didn’t get released!) but when Bill asked to use it on his Fiction sampler CD I didn’t see why not.
