Looking Up lyrics - Elegies: A Song Cycle

Looking Up

[WOMAN TWO]
Looking up
Seeing nothing but sky
In a blink of an eye
For something once rose high
And higher
Now nothing does
Once was there was

Looking up
Angels float on a cloud
Such a memorable crowd
Well-toned, high-boned friends and mothers
Near but far
And we are
Ah
Looking up
Ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah

Looking up
Not remembering why
Some historians try
To tell us what was here
And what was over there
So we stare

Ah ah ah ah ah
Looking up
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
Looking up

Dee da da dee da da da dee
Da da dee da dum
Dee da da dum
Dee da da da da da dum
Dee da da dee da da da da
Dee da da da
Dee da da da
Dee da da da
Dee da da da
Dee da

Dee da da dee da
Da da da da
Dee da
Dee da da da
Dee da da da
Dee da da da dee da da da
Dee da da da da
