Lookin’ Up in Heaven Songtext
von Paul Westerberg

Someday morning I felt afraid
Someone leaving in the world today
I looked low, I looked high
Only missed one friend
Before I go, I look high again

So I went lookin′ up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn′t right
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight

Sunday evening I get the blues
Someone sleeping′ in their tennis shoes
I looked low and I looked high
Only missed one friend
Before I go, I look high again


So I went lookin′ up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn′t right
I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn′t anywhere in sight

I met a little angel
She asked me if I could step outside
"I'll make you forget her, I′ll make you forget her
Baby, won't you watch me fly?"

Years go by now, now I have grown
Sunday night and I ain't alone
So you look low and I look high
And miss another friend
Before I go, I look high again
(I love you)

Lookin′ up in heaven
But you wasn′t anywhere in sight
They asked me to stick around
But without you it just wasn't right
So I went lookin′ up in heaven
But you wasn't anywhere in sight

They invited me to stick around, you know
But I told ′em there was another place
I had to check out tonight


I went lookin' up in heaven
But you wasn′t anywhere in sight
