[Alan Menken, Glenn Slater, Eden Espinosa, Mandy Moore - The View from Up Here lyrics]
Life's been so unsatisfying
Look, suddenly, now I'm flying
Freewheeling from cloud to cloud to cloud
Wings spread and the sky below me
There's no one to stop or slow me
Pure freedom and everything's allowed
Down there
I know there's tons of burdens I must bear
Somewhere
But from up here the world looks so small
And suddenly life seems so clear
And from up here you coast past it all
The obstacles just disappear
Never feel heavy or earthbound
No worries or doubts interfere
There's nothing but you looking down on
The view from up here
Stretch out with the wind behind you
(Here we go)
Float up, let the current find you
(Look out below)
Keep climbing and sail from breeze to breeze
(Stay close, don't leave me, please)
Head up to the stratospheres
With only the stars to steer us
Just think of the possibilities
I think I've got it!
Below
We spend our whole lives trudging to and 'fro
Now-
Woah!
And from up here
The world looks so wide
Yet every horizon seems near
And from up here
No path is denied
You choose which direction you veer
And suddenly you can breathe easy
Contented
Carefree
Cavalier
Just gliding on through
Looking down on the view from up here
And from up here the world is all yours
Each mountain and meadow and mere
And from up here life's duties and chores
Are barely worth shedding a tear
And all of the sky lies before us
Straight up to the far stratosphere
So head for the blue and let's take
In the view from up here
It's just me and you looking down
On the view from up here
Look, suddenly, now I'm flying
Freewheeling from cloud to cloud to cloud
Wings spread and the sky below me
There's no one to stop or slow me
Pure freedom and everything's allowed
Down there
I know there's tons of burdens I must bear
Somewhere
But from up here the world looks so small
And suddenly life seems so clear
And from up here you coast past it all
The obstacles just disappear
Never feel heavy or earthbound
No worries or doubts interfere
There's nothing but you looking down on
The view from up here
Stretch out with the wind behind you
(Here we go)
Float up, let the current find you
(Look out below)
Keep climbing and sail from breeze to breeze
(Stay close, don't leave me, please)
Head up to the stratospheres
With only the stars to steer us
Just think of the possibilities
I think I've got it!
Below
We spend our whole lives trudging to and 'fro
Now-
Woah!
And from up here
The world looks so wide
Yet every horizon seems near
And from up here
No path is denied
You choose which direction you veer
And suddenly you can breathe easy
Contented
Carefree
Cavalier
Just gliding on through
Looking down on the view from up here
And from up here the world is all yours
Each mountain and meadow and mere
And from up here life's duties and chores
Are barely worth shedding a tear
And all of the sky lies before us
Straight up to the far stratosphere
So head for the blue and let's take
In the view from up here
It's just me and you looking down
On the view from up here
