Down here on the earth, in the water and sand
We can feel the heat, but we can't understand
We've got to be aware
Of where the heat comes from
We've got to lift our eyes
Raise our hearts and our minds
Up to the radiant sun

Chorus:
Remember to look at the sky
Remember to look at the sky
See your possibilities
See your possibilities
See your possibilities
See your possibilities

We're chopping up all the trees, to build our houses of sticks
But with the huffing and puffing of the cosmic wind
We're going to run out of tricks
We've been making our plans
As if the sun never sets
Act like there's no tomorrow
And when there's no tomorrow
There's no hedging our bets

High, high¸ like the sun in your eyes
It's a shining aberration, it's a promise it's your finest surprise
High, high, there is no alibi
Every moment we lose
Makes it harder to choose
A new way to survive

While the meter is running, we make our daily bread
While it's in the oven, we're counting in our heads:
In a couple of years ten or twenty or so
We'll have a house in the country for the kids
If the whole thing doesn't blow
(Chorus 2x)
