Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Telephone
[Instrumental]
It's Ol' Dirty
He wants to give you directions home
Said it won't be too long
Day is gone
It's 3:30
Too hungry for some love, love
Last forever
[Chorus]
Just fly away to Heaven, brother
Make a place for me, brother
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Save a place for me, brother
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Put in a word for me
Telephone
[Instrumental]
Telephone
It's Ol' Dirty
He wants to give you directions home
They won't be too long
Said it won't be too long
Telephone
It's too early
We want to hear a long song
Transition with a real slow fade
[Chorus]
Just fly away to Heaven, brother
Make a place for me, brother
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Save a place for me, brother
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Put in a word for me
Telephone
[Instrumental]
Transition, it's time to go away
Time to go away
Slow fade
Slow, slow fade, oh
[Chorus]
Just fly away to Heaven, brother
Make a place for me, brother
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Save a place for me, brother
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Put in a word for me
Fly away to Heaven, brother
Celebrate
[PostChorus]
Gather on the hill
Two hearts up in the sky
Celebrate your life
Oh, say I love you
[Verse 2]
Gather on the hill
Two hearts up in the sky
Celebrate your life
Oh, say I love you
[Verse 3]
Gather on the hill
Two hearts up in the sky
Celebrate your life
Oh, say I love you
[Instrumental]
For me
[Instrumental]
Thank, thank you
