Someday morning I felt afraid
Someone leaving in the world today
I looked low, I looked high
Only missed one friend
Before I go, I look high again
So I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
Sunday evening I get the blues
Someone sleeping' in their tennis shoes
I looked low and I looked high
Only missed one friend
Before I go, I look high again
So I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
I met a little angel, she asked me if I could step outside
"I'll make you forget her, I'll make you forget her
Baby, won't you watch me fly?"
Years go by now, now I have grown
Sunday night and I ain't alone
So you look low and I look high
And miss another friend
Before I go, I look high again (I love you)
Lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
So I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They invited me to stick around, you know
But I told 'em there was another place I had to check out tonight
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
Someone leaving in the world today
I looked low, I looked high
Only missed one friend
Before I go, I look high again
So I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
Sunday evening I get the blues
Someone sleeping' in their tennis shoes
I looked low and I looked high
Only missed one friend
Before I go, I look high again
So I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
I met a little angel, she asked me if I could step outside
"I'll make you forget her, I'll make you forget her
Baby, won't you watch me fly?"
Years go by now, now I have grown
Sunday night and I ain't alone
So you look low and I look high
And miss another friend
Before I go, I look high again (I love you)
Lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
So I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They invited me to stick around, you know
But I told 'em there was another place I had to check out tonight
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
