Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
And I really do believe, I say I really do believe, there is a heaven somewhere

Up above my head I see trouble in the air
Up above my head I see trouble in the air
Up above my head I see trouble in the air
And I really do believe, I say I really do believe, there is a heaven somewhere
Heaven somewhere

Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head I hear music in the air
And I erally do believe, I say I really do believe, there is a heaven somewhere
Heaven somewhere

Up above my head I see trouble in the air
Up above my head I see trouble in the air
Up above my head I see trouble in the air
and I really do believe, I say I really do believe, there is a heaven somewhere
Heaven somewhere

And I really do believe, I say I really do believe, there is a heaven somewhere
Heaven somewhere
