Just because I could say It's my life, do things my way [Chorus] Now I'm looking up more than I look down The view's a whole lot better second time around Too much of me was living in the shadows I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground [Verse 2] Color a lot with a broader stroke The laughter comes as easy as the jokes Nowadays, I'm thinking 'bout Time is wasted looking back [Chorus] Now I'm looking up more than I look down The view's a whole lot better second time around Too much of me was living in the shadows I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground [Bridge] You drop a bucket in a well It's dark and deep down there Crank the handle, bring it up The water, crystal clear [Chorus] I'm looking up more than I look down The view's a whole lot better second time around Too much of me was living in the shadows I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground I'm looking up more than I look down The view's a whole lot better second time around Too much of me was living in the shadows I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground [Outro] Looking up Looking up Looking up Looking up
