Lyrics

One More Time

[Verse]

I'd love to touch the sky, tonight, I'd love to touch the sky

So take me in your arms and lift me like a child

And hold me up so high and never let me go

Take me, take me in your arms tonight

[Pre-Chorus]

Hold me, hold me up so high

And never let me down

Hold me, hold me up so high

To touch the sky just one more time

[Chorus]

Take me in your arms, tonight

Take me in your arms just one more time

Just one more time, just one more time

Just one more time
