    Story Behind the Song
    This is a simple song about a struggle to succeed and rise first to the surface and then to the sky. It was inspired by a trip to New York a few years ago, and a cold night at the now defunkt Sine Club. Aimee Mann and the late Jeff Buckley were in the audience, and having played to such an illustrious audience and survived the evening, this song emerged in the following hours, assisted by the warm glow provided by several pints of Guinness!

    Lyrics
    I feel this magic in the air,
    It makes me want to stop and stare,
    At everything I've ever seen,
    At everything in my gold dream.

    I can feel the wind of change in my face,
    As I stand at the start of the human race,
    I've packed my bags with love and pride,
    Now I'm ready to take the perfect ride.

    I'm Going Up Now - Gonna spread my wings and fly,
    I'm Going Up Now - Sworn the oath to do or die,
    I'm Going Up Now - Gonna reach up for the sky, yeah!

    I've seen my star light up the sky,
    And I've sworn the oath to do or die,
    I can't look back and I won't look down,
    Coz I was lost - and now I'm found.

    I'm Going Up Now - Gonna spread my wings and fly,
    I'm Going Up Now - Sworn the oath to do or die,
    I'm Going Up Now - Gonna reach up for the sky, yeah!

    I've seen too many rainbows - fade to grey,
    I've seen too many lovers - fade away, yeah.

    I'm Going Up Now - I'm Going Up Now
    I'm Going Up Now - Gonna spread my wings and fly,
    I'm Going Up Now - Sworn the oath to do or die,
    I'm Going Up Now - Gonna reach up for the sky, yeah!
