  • If I've been acting a little strange
  • And you have noticed it too
  • It's 'cos my life has been rearranged
  • With the presence of you
  • The sky is the limit now
  • We can hit it on the nail
  • And when we do
  • I'll think about you
  • How can we fail
  • Can you give me one reason why
  • You'd ever let me down
  • I won't believe it baby, but I'll try
  • The truth's goin' to come around
  • The sky is the limit now
  • We can hit it on the nail
  • And when we do
  • I'll think about you
  • How can we fail
  • The sky is the limit
  • Oh, the sky is the limit
  • How can we fail
  • Sooner or later
  • I'll keep the promise
  • I made you
  • Sooner or later
  • It will be greater
  • Than we ever knew
  • The sky is the limit now
  • We can hit it on the nail
  • And when we do
  • I'll think about you
