Analysis of From up Above



When love is right.
It is a pure delight.
You hang on tight.
With all your might.

To have faith in others, as they do in you.
It's the way, see what God's faith can do.
To see each others love shining through.
It can make our hearts, mushy like goo.

No matter what is meant to be your plight.
Your heart doesn't mind, it's already in flight.
You know everything is going to be alright.
True love will deliver us from our worst night.

Hoping and praying that others will see good in you.
That you are worth it, and what you've been through.
To just believe in love, and take the giant leaps we do.
To know that one's belief in US, can our hearts renew.
