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 dumb      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
