Elton John - Looking Up

Figuring out where I went wrong
'Cause grip that followed then was gone for long
Too much pluck, too little of
The acting right, not acting up
Upon the world, upon my back
Could someone else but me pick up the slack?
Just because I could say
It's my life, do things my way

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 hidden in the shadows
I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground.

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!

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 hidden in the shadows
I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground.

[Bridge:]
You got me bugging in a way
That's talkin' deep down there
Crank a handle, bring it up
The water, crystal clear

[Guitars break]

(x2)
I'm looking up more than I look down
The view's a whole lot better second time around
Too much of me was hidden in the shadows
I looked up and felt my feet lift off the ground.

Looking up
Looking up
Looking up
Looking up
