Up

Another night

At the bottom of the river of life

The world is closing over me

But everything's all right

A life alone is all I need

Just a deep blue dive

Where nobody asks if you're alive

And, baby, I know

The only way that I'll ever go

Is up

Another night

In a city with no street lighting

Standing under windows

Where I hear two lovers fighting

I wouldn't keep a dog down here

Where criminals sing

If I could fly I'd be on the wing

And, baby, I know

The only way that I'll ever go

Is up

And there was a time

That it almost came to love

There was a place, just a point on the map

And, oh, I need you now

Oh, I need you

You learn something new every day

Another night

At the bottom of the river of life

I know I look lonely, I know

But everything's all right

Love might be the answer

But I don't have the price

I never seem to burn the same way twice

And, baby, I know

The only way that I'll ever go

Is up
