Well I fell down, down, down
Into this dark and lonely hole
There was no one there to care about me anymore

And I needed a way to climb and grab a hold of the edge
You were sitting there holding a rope


And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer

Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now


When I get back on land
Well I'll never get my chance
Be ready to live and it'll be ripped right out of my hands

Maybe someday we'll take a little ride
We'll go up, up, up and everything will be just fine


And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher
We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer

Up here my dear

It won't be long now, it won't be long now

If only I had a little bit more time
If only I had a little bit more time with you


We could go up, up, up
And take that little ride
And sit there holding hands

And everything would be just right
And maybe someday I'll see you again
We'll float up in the clouds and we'll never see the end


And we'll go up, up, up
But I'll fly a little higher

We'll go up in the clouds because the view is a little nicer
Up here my dear
It won't be long now, it won't be long now
