Lyrics

I know who shot Kennedy/Stonehenge ain't no mystery to me/And the Mona Lisa herself/Told me why she smiledYou won't believe all the things that I seeAs I walk on the stars, sleep in the clouds/I hear you at night, when you cry out loud/Here, there's no pain, there's no fear/But I can see my house from up hereI saw our Amy's class play/Hard to believe she's already eight/And you wished I could be there/But how would you know that I was'Cause I left this world so suddenly/With so many people depending on me/I only wish that there'd been more time for goodbye/I couldn't speak but I triedNow I walk on the stars, sleep in the clouds/I hear you at night, when you cry out loud/Here, there's no pain, there's no fear/But I can see my house from up hereIf a streetlamp burns out as you pass underneath/Or you swear someone's there so you turn round to see/Or the radio's on and they keep playin' our song/And you fall back through time's open door/That's me tryin' to touch you once moreNow I walk on the stars, sleep in the clouds/Move on with your life, go make me proud/Here, I'm away but I'm always near/'Cause I can see my house...from up here
