the view from on top of this blue-green world

[joesoxfan]

after years spent down here in the darkest corners of life
im finally up where the winds are still, where the stars shine
where i can see where the water meets the land
where the clouds congegrate,bringing much needed rain to the deserts
but all i want to do is look into her eyes
none of the beautiful things i can see from up here compare
and even if they did, i would try my hardest to ignore them

now that im here, i now know what it means to mean something to someone
who would have thought that nasa has it all wrong
engines and jet fuel and all that expensive equipment
its a waste
cuz all it took to exit the atmospere was a kiss
all it took to feel wieghtless was staring into her eyes
as i look down at where ive been, its all so far away
all the sadness,all the pain, everything that is wrong with me
was left somewhere in the great expanse of land between canada and mexico

cuz up here, nothing can touch me
save for her lips and her hands
up here nothing matters
exept the smile on my face
up here nothing is the same
and its never felt this great

i know what it looks from up here
and i hope i never forget
and this time, i dont think i will
this is the view from on top of this blue-green world
