The View From Up Here Lyrics — Beaches
The View From Up Here Lyrics
Here’s what would happen
If dreams would come true
When they turn that bright light on me
I’d amaze them
You’d be so proud
Then I look your way
You’d glow with our love
When it was true I’d leave with you
You’d pull me close in that way you do
Just look at the view from up here
Seeing you walking together
I saw my dreams disappear
Our love is gone now
I must move on now
Darling that’s clear
Just look at the view from up here
All this was for us
The glory we’d share
Just to bask in the light
Standing there together
Sure of our love
All that I prayed for
But it wasn’t to be
The world at our door
Know two people had more
But by loving you wouldn’t be enough
Would you look at the view from up here
Watching you walk out together
I saw my dreams disappear
I don’t have you love
You found a new love
But I’ll be all right
Night after heartbroken night
Only because
I can look at the view from up here
If dreams would come true
When they turn that bright light on me
I’d amaze them
You’d be so proud
Then I look your way
You’d glow with our love
When it was true I’d leave with you
You’d pull me close in that way you do
Just look at the view from up here
Seeing you walking together
I saw my dreams disappear
Our love is gone now
I must move on now
Darling that’s clear
Just look at the view from up here
All this was for us
The glory we’d share
Just to bask in the light
Standing there together
Sure of our love
All that I prayed for
But it wasn’t to be
The world at our door
Know two people had more
But by loving you wouldn’t be enough
Would you look at the view from up here
Watching you walk out together
I saw my dreams disappear
I don’t have you love
You found a new love
But I’ll be all right
Night after heartbroken night
Only because
I can look at the view from up here
