Looking to the sky
I feel my heart pull up
Up, up
Oh how I want up
But here I am stuck on the ground

The sky a blue expanse of magic
mystery
The sky begins at your feet
I feel the earth beneath my toes
And I feel my heart breaking
I want up, I want out
The blue up, oh, up
But here I am
Stuck on the ground

My soul aches, oh my heart wants
But here I am
Stuck on the ground
