You Lift Me Up To Heaven (Reba McEntire) - STING 21215   (Jack Borgstrom)  

 

(Opener): circle to the left

Been to Colorado where the mountains touch the sky
And I've done other things in life to lift my spirits high

Allemande Left that corner – do sa do

Allemande the corner and you Weave it you know
You lift me up, up, up, up to heaven

Swing me girl and Promenade
You lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
Yes you make my world go round


 

(Figure): HEADS your gonna PROMENADE a HALFWAY ‘round there with your maid – down the middle and SQUARE THRU FOUR hands around I say

All the way and then a RIGHT AND LEFT THRU and turn your girl – VEER LEFT and then you FERRIS WHEEL and you deal

Come on and SQUARE THRU THREE - two - one – Swing a little girl and you Promenade around the town

You lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
Yes you make my world go round

 

 

(Middle Break): circle left

I never try to get away on daydreams anymore
Love's taken me to places that I've never been before

 

 

(Closer): Four Ladies Chain across that ring around you know

You Chain HER right back home across the floor you know

Join hands and Circle to the Left in a ring
Allemande Left with your Corner of the hall and you Weave The Ring
Cause you lift me up, up, up, up to heaven

Swing a little girl and Promenade
You lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
Yes you make my world go round



(Tag): SWING her now

 

 

ORIGINAL LYRICS:

 

(Verse)

Been to Colorado where the mountains touch the sky
And I've done other things in life to lift my spirits high
But nothing that I've ever tried to do
Has taken me as high as loving you

(Chorus)
Cause you lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
When you gently lay me down
You lift me up, up, up, up to heaven
Yes you make my world go round

(Verse)
I never try to get away on daydreams anymore
Love's taken me to places that I've never been before
But if it's not heaven when you're holding me
It's the way that heaven oughta be

(Ending)

And we never leave the ground
