Earthbound
Sammy Davis Jr. · Other Songs - Sammy Davis Jr.
Til I looked into your eyes
I found my heart was Earthbound
Til you took it to the skies
I felt your arms around me
And I was safe and warm in your embrace
Suddenly, the change that bound me
Were gone and I was soaring into space
I thought happiness missed me
But you changed my world around
Yes, I was Earthbound
Until you first kissed me
And then in your arms
I became Heavenbound
(I thought happiness missed me
But you changed my world around)
Yes, I was Earthbound
Until you first kissed me
And then in your arms
I became Heavenbound
Earthbound
