What a wonderful place
With the clouds beneath
And the world forgotten
Where beauty finds a home
Like the skin on my bones
And the wonder on my face
When I'm at last released
From this mortal coffin
That binds me and blinds me
To all but what is temporary

'Cause the sun always shines above the clouds
No matter what it looks like from the ground
The sun always shines above the clouds
And I, I don't wanna' come back down

Here am I, high above
The shallow glances and the stinging words
And the boredom pouring from the eyes and the tongues
Of the blind and the dum

Only now can I see
What you think of me
And words, once unclear
Are ringing in my ears

'Cause the sun always shines above the clouds
No matter what it looks like from the ground
The sun always shines above the clouds
And I said I don't wanna' come back down

Only now can I see
What you think of me
And words, once unclear
Are ringing in my ears

'Cause the sun always shines above the clouds
No matter what it looks like from the ground
The sun always shines above the clouds
And I

With air so thin and love so thick
I almost can't remember
What I left in Dallas
Or what waits for me in Denver
And as you know, my understanding
All depends on where I'm standing
And my demeanor will decide
If grass is greener on my side
'Cause the eye is the limit
And I see madness, show me the method
You see, I've had this poor,
Pathetic point of view for 19 years too long now
But I will leave the air with what I've found
And you will be there on the ground
With warm eyes and a sympathetic smile
And I'll realize you were there all the while

Dallas to Denver
