When you started out this morning everything was slow
And you were feeling kind of lonely.
From that very moment everything was gray and bleak,
No smile upon your face to see.
Quit thinking about the past and leave your cares behind
'Cause if you smile it's sure that you will find
The sun will shine and chase the clouds away.

Chorus:
So it's better to look up,
Never, never to look down,
It's in looking up that happiness and love are found.
So it's better to look up,
Never, never to look down,
It's in looking up that happiness and love are found.

If all your problems mount up,
Your World is crumblin' 'round your ears,
You just can't see for all your fears.
If you feel you want to quit and give up the fight,
You know you're in an awful plight.
Quit thinking a bout the past
And leave your cares behind
'Cause if you smile it's sure that you will find
The sun will shine and chase the clouds away.

[Repeat chorus twice]

Chorus:
So remember to look up,
Never, never to look down,
It's in looking up that happiness and love are found.
So remember to look up,
Never, never to look down,
It's in looking up that happiness and love are found.
It's in looking up that happiness and love are found.
