When you're close to tears remember
Someday it'll all be over
One day we're gonna get so high
Though it's darker than December
What's ahead is a different colour
One day we're gonna get so high

And at the end of the day remember the days
When we were close to the end
And wonder how we made it through the night
At the end of the day
Remember the way
We stayed so close to the end
We'll remember it was me and you

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love

Don't you think it's time you started
Doing what we always wanted
One day we're gonna get so high
Cause even the impossible
Is easy when we got each other
One day we're gonna get so high

And at the end of the day remember the days
When we were close to the end
And wonder how we made it through the night
At the end of the day
Remember the way
We stayed so close to the end
We'll remember it was me and you

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love

And at the end of the day remember the days
When we were close to the end
And wonder how we made it through the night
At the end of the day
Remember the way
We stayed so close to the end
We'll remember it was me and you

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love

Cause we are gonna be
Forever, you and me
You will
Always keep it flying high in the sky
Of love...

    General Comment:Hello I am a Christian and this song Hit my heart at a very important time in my life it gave me both courage and hope. The Song is to me a Song from God to me. I was thinking about the world and i was in tears about it when this song came on the car radio and i heard it for the first time. I had to pull over and stop the car because i was crying so much.

    Ok i will go through the song and interpret it:
    When you're close to tears remember
    Someday it'll all be over

    ( Someday it will all be over is talking about 2 things. One being my death and the other being the Way the world is now with all its hate corruption and violance and lack of love)

    One day we're gonna get so high

    ( One Day i am going to be resurected into a perfect body and will be with Jesus in eternity in a perfect existance sourounded by truth and Love)

    Though it's darker than December
    What's ahead is a different colour

    (Darker than december is a pointer to the current state of the world and peoples lives in it. And what's ahead os a changed world where the hate, the evil and corruption will be swept away)

    One day we're gonna get so high

    And at the end of the day remember the days
    When we were close to the end
    And wonder how we made it through the night

    The end of the Day is the end of Days the time just before the comming of the Messiah Jesus, persecution of christians will become terrable and most will be beheaded because they believe Jesus but sone will survive through the darkest of days and be here to see the second coming of Jesus.

    At the end of the day
    Remember the way
    We stayed so close to the end
    We'll remember it was me and you

    (The "Way" is the Way of salvation through the Atonement of the Messiah Jesus. So during the end of Days it will be important to never forget the Way. Staying so close to the end means staying alive so close to the second coming of Jesus. "me and you" refers to God and Me, God will be with me through the Holy Spirit to the end he shall not abandon me but will give me peace and strengh to face the dark days)

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love

    (Yes God and me will be together for forever and my Heart will always be flying high in the sky of His Love)

    Don't you think it's time you started
    Doing what we always wanted

    ( What i wanted and what God wanted and we both still want is to share the message of Gods forgivness through the Atonment of the Messiah Jesus so that others will have the love and peace and assurance that come from God. It is a call to share the gospel.)

    One day we're gonna get so high
    Cause even the impossible
    Is easy when we got each other
    One day we're gonna get so high

    ( With the Holy Spirit within you can be lifted up to hights of wisdom and compassion that would be impossible to do without God, many thing become easy when we got each other. The rest of the song is a reinforcement of the Message from God. I still get tears in my eyes everytime i listen to this song, tears of sadness for the people of the world and tears of Joy at knowing the Love of God for me. Its a very powerful mix of emotions )


    And at the end of the day remember the days
    When we were close to the end
    And wonder how we made it through the night
    At the end of the day
    Remember the way
    We stayed so close to the end
    We'll remember it was me and you

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love

    And at the end of the day remember the days
    When we were close to the end
    And wonder how we made it through the night
    At the end of the day
    Remember the way
    We stayed so close to the end
    We'll remember it was me and you

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love

    Cause we are gonna be
    Forever, you and me
    You will
    Always keep it flying high in the sky
    Of love...

    General Comment:very sweet song....perfect for making you feel uplifted. i don't think it has a specific meaning...just about a person assuring another person that nothing bad lasts forever and there's always something beyond where you are in your life.

    I liiiiike it.

    General Comment:I like this song.
    It reminds me of me and my father when I was little. We used to be really close and we used to always sing this song together.

    We're not as close as we were then, but whenever I think of this song, I think of that. It makes me happy.

    The lyrics are really inspirational to. It's telling you to never give up, because eventually you'll get where you want to be.

    General Comment:I love this song. It was playing on a roadtrip I was on once with a busful of friends, and that week of my life was just amazing, and every time I hear this song it just lifts my spirits.

    This song also gives me great memories of a 2 year relationship I was in, the lyrics are so fitting to that.

    "At the end of the day, remember the way,
    we stayed so close til the end
    We'll remember, it was me and you..."

    Amos, go home. Support songs you like, but dont trash songs that mean the world to other people. I think I stand for everyone else who has posted on this song when I say that.
