[Verse 1] I was just coastin', never really goin' anywhere Caught up in a web, I was gettin' kinda used to stayin' there And out of the blue, I fell for you [Chorus 1] Now, you're lifting me up 'stead of holding me down Stealing my heart 'stead of stealing my crown Untangled all the strings 'round my wings that were tied I didn't know him and I didn't know me Cloud Nine was always out of reach Now, I remember what it feels like to fly You give me butterflies [Verse 2] Kiss full of color makes me wonder where you've always been I was hiding in doubt 'til you brought me out of my chrysalis And I came out new All because of you [Chorus 1] And now, you're lifting me up 'stead of holding me down Stealing my heart 'stead of stealing my crown Untangled all the strings 'round my wings that were tied I didn't know him and I didn't know me Cloud Nine was always out of reach Now, I remember what it feels like to fly You give me butterflies, yeah You give me butterflies Ooh, mmm, mmm [Chorus 2] Now, you're lifting me up 'stead of holding me down You're taking my hand 'stead of taking my crown Untangled all the strings 'round my wings that were tied I didn't know him and I didn't know me Cloud Nine was always out of reach Now, I remember what it feels like to fly You give me butterflies You give me butterflies
