lyrics
Life will try to get you down -
Don’t listen to that sound,
Keep looking up.
Sometimes darkness is all you’ll see
Can’t even see what’s in front of me,
But light will come.
So don’t stare at the ground -
You’ll miss the sky up above.
It’s filled with love.
Just get your feet off the ground,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around.
Some days you might feel a little weird
Like you don’t fit in here,
And feel like you never will.
I’ve been there myself, and what I’ve found:
People that are a little different
Make the world go ‘round.
So don’t stare at the ground -
You’ll miss the sky up above.
It’s filled with love.
Just get your feet off the ground,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around.
Never forget that you are loved.
Whoever you are, you are enough.
So never give up.
So don’t stare at the ground -
You’ll miss the sky up above.
It’s filled with love.
Just get your feet off the ground,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around,
It’ll turn around.
