Up and Away Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sometimes it seems like The world’s spinning just for me Still not convinced that it isn’t In my universe, you could do much worse Delusionality is living the dream [Verse 2] It’s hard to cover much ground W ith your head in the clouds Yet I seem so determined Permanent vocation is looming imminent The time must come to flagellate childish flings [Pre-Chorus] When I was young I was infinite I wore the sky like a big, bright, blue bonnet But my thoughts all got lost in it [Chorus] Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away, now [Verse 3] I never held a good wife, never held a good job Never saw the pyramids of Giza And the list goes on, like a marathon Into the ether all of our years drift [Chorus] Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away [Bridge] I thought I’d have a nice lake house I thought I’d have a few tykes running round my legs Sipping hurricanes in the shade Whatever happened to big skies I guess our fortunes are finite Letting go of the notions I had as a boy Red balloons float into the void [Chorus] Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away, now Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away Up, up, up, up, up, up and away, now
