It hurts to look up

to see the stars shining so bright

to hear the calling of the moon

in the sky so clear


It hurts to look up

to have the peace envelop me

to let the breeze carry me

up to the edges of the earth


It hurts to look up

to feel the soft kiss of night

to hold the remembrance

of a long summer's day

It hurts to look up

to know you have to look back down

to see the end and to hold it
