I can't get much higher
New York in the summertime
Get close with a bottle of wine
Last year was a broken heart
Last year was a broken heart
Last year was a broken heart
Damn, flip it around, what a beautiful start
You and me on the top of the roof
Slow dance in the light of the moon
Never thought we would get this far
Never thought we would get this far, no
Never thought we would get this far
Why flip it around? What a beautiful start
The drinks are gettin' better, the view is lookin' nice
As long as we're together, no, I can't get much higher, high, high
No, I can't get much higher
Let's stay like this forever
I'll kiss you every night
As long as we're together
No, I can't get much higher, high, high
No, I can't get much higher
All eyes are lookin' at us
But I can't stop fallin' in love
Always been the one that I want, yeah
Always been the one that I want, yeah
Always been the one that I want
Wow, look at us now, damn, what have we done?
I almost can't believe it
So please don't wake me if I'm dreamin'
Whenever I'm with you
The drinks are gettin' better, the view is lookin' nice
As long as we're together, no I can't get much higher, high, high
No, I can't get much higher
Let's stay like this forever
I'll kiss you every night
As long as we're together
No, I can't get much higher, high, high
No, I can't get much higher
Say, say you won't let go
All I know
Is I can't get much higher
I can't get much higher
The drinks are gettin' better (better)
The view is lookin' nice (na, na)
As long as we're together
No, I can't get much higher (can't get much higher) high, high
No, I can't get much higher
Let's stay like this forever
I'll kiss you every night
As long as we're together
No, I can't get much higher, high, high
No, I can't get much higher
