Song Lyrics
Above The Blue(Ratts/Kern)somewhere above the cloudsthe sky is blueand so am idown here with youi know the sun is bright above the rainbut way down hereits...
somewhere above the clouds the sky is blue and so am i down here with you i know the sun is bright above the rain but way down here its not that way
i want to fly
life's a choice whatever will you do tear it apart, or see it through? the future may seem rough but man, i swear open your eyes it's all out there
i want to fly way up high where the angels fly in sunlight and the starlight meets the sky i want to be high up and free where the world won't trouble me i'll see you above the blue
won't you turn my sky a little brighter make my life a little lighter there's a sunny day not far away if you can show a little kindness i know happiness will find us just me and you above the blue

"One of the coolest pure pop/power pop records of 2011 (and one that just narrowly missed making my year-end top 20) was Above the Blue by Vegas With Randolph. Led by talented songwriters John Ratts and Eric Kern, VWR play the type of music that made me fall in love with power pop in the first place: sticky-sweet melodies that sound as if you’ve been pals with ‘em for years, guitars that crunch, palpable energy and a big helping of fun. There are songs about trees, sippy cups and Marisa Tomei, as well as some keys and horns to spice things up a bit. It’s all pretty wonderful, but the standouts to these ears are the absolutely irresistible “Wondering” and the ridiculously hooky “Marisa” (about the aforementioned Ms. Tomei)."
