Am      C     D      Em
You wanted a challenge
Am         G       D    Em
that's calling you higher
I landed on my feet by crawling
I remember standing alone
trying to forget you idling
I hate to admit that that's my reference point
                             Dm
But there it is you say you want me

Chorus:
              Dm                 C
I'm what you found, I'm upside down
              G           Am      C
You're in the air, you're in the air
           G 
and I am breathing

Brighten the stars
The weather is lifting the heavens love
a love like this
It's pulling you higher twist it
and turn this around
It lights from within it dribbles your chin
Now brings a smile, I'm lost again
I'm lost again

Chorus

I want the stars to know they've won
if only to beguile
The sky has opened up again
in heavens reconciled
I want you naked, I want you wild,
I want the stars to know they win
Give me that smile, just give it me,
just turn it on, I'm lost again

Chorus:
I'm what you found, I'm upside down,
you're in the air
I'm what you found, I'm upside down,
you're in the air
I'm what you found, I'm upside down
You're everywhere, you're in the air
and I am breathing you
