Lyrics for Above Me as interpreted by JRBD

Above Me Lyrics
"Rufio,Rufio,RU-FI-O"

If I was to walk 'till time saw no end
If I was to climb 'till the air was too thin
I could not find a picture to fit the frame
As perfect as you
As perfect as you

You showed me life and lived nothing less
Cause you're so above me
I took my time your memory is bliss
The angel above me

When I look at the stars they shine of your eyes
The sky, it burns bright with your presence tonight
Yet you're so above me and I cannot fly
To the angel above me I long to be with, with

Angel above me

To look at the mountains vast and great
Is one step above in seeing your face
To look at the stars for they lead the way
To the angel above

If I was to walk 'till time saw no end
If I was to climb 'till the air was too thin
I could not find a picture to fit the frame
As perfect as you
As perfect as you

You showed me life and lived nothing less
Yet you're so above me
I took my time your memory is bliss
The angel above me

When I look at the stars they shine of your eyes
The sky, it burns bright with your presence tonight
Yet your so above me and I cannot fly
To the angel above me I long to be with, with

Angel above me

to me.. this song will always hold a very special place in my heart..
somebody that means a hell of a lot, showed me this song..
and it just is a constant reminder of him everytime i hear this..

i just think its about a guy, and he has this girl that just he is absoulety in love with and she just means soooo much to him.

ok, ok, just so everyone is on the same foot here. RUFIO is a christian band, and it's obvious that this song is about ''the angel above'', and whatever you do the ''angels'' are always there.
(when you look at the stars, the sky, or the mountains)

this song is just a shoutout for someone that they love and think is so much better than they are, hence the "angel above me"

After reading Rufiobrodie's (If that's the truth,the lyrics do go with it) reply,I listened to the song and my eyes teared up a litte because I have had a parent die as well.

But,on the positive side,you could totally use this song to score sweet points with a guy/girl :)

Greatest rufio song, so poetic it describes love so much. Its such a beautiful song "I could not find a picture to fit the frame...As perfect as you" as much as i cry when i hear that is so *shudder* romantic.

i've just been invitited to a band where they wanted me to play this son... i know you'll kick me (sorry) but I personaly don't like this kind of music... hey listen to the Great Gig in the Sky... maybe you'll like it haha... naa but its a really catchy lyrics although they sing about the only boring things actual songs sing about... a very superficial view of love... not very expressive...

I love this song. It rocks especially in concert. When Rufio was in the Warped Tour in KC, they sang this song. I think I died of happiness. :D

I used to talk to scott the lead singer a long time ago and he said John the bassist wrote it about his mother.

I think everyone interprets this song in different ways. For me....I live in Florida so when i went to go visit my grandmother in Colorado where i had never been..i missed my BF soo much. And the first night i had horrible nose bleeds, i was cold and things just sucked..but i that night i looked up into the sky and it was just blankets of stars everywhere. And lookin at all those beautiful stars was just like lookin into my bfs eyes. The mountains..the air the sky...it just all brings me to this song, Rufio is just brilliant!

This is very straight forward. Its about a friend (a lot of you probably think a girl but all he says is angel and friend) that died and is up in heaven now and though hes lookin for new friends he cant seem to find one that fits this person place because he realizes they were perfect. He feels that the sprit of the friend is still around though because he looks in the sky and can almost see them lookin down on him, and thats why he doesnt feel alone.
I'm out, Kal

I don't really think this song is "emo". Rufio seems to hold more punky-pop characteristics. Nevertheless, this song is very good. I used to hate Rufio. Until I heard this song, I thought them nothing more than a NFG ripoff...and well...NFG is prolly one of my least favorite bands.

I just started listening to Rufio the other night, and I love em already....I love everything bout this song, from the intro they took from the movie Hook, to the fast tempo (the guitars in this song kick ass....and the drums are nice and quick, which just makes for a great song)....and then to top it off the lyrics are just amazing......Rufio has a new fan in me

*when i look at the stars, they shine of your eyes*
*the sky it burns bring with your presence tonight*
*yet you're so above me and i cannot fly*
*to the angel above me i long to be with*

i could never find the words to express the way i miss my friend who died one summer, but rufio seems to have found those words.
