From up here she said there's no compromise I've seen them laughing and they're in up to their eyes And all their clever words are whistling in the wind Whistling in the wind 'From up here' she said 'you get the widest view Someone's watching no matter what you do And if you hesitate they steal away your time Steal away your time'
You must not look down, you must not look down Watch them fall and you're sure to follow You must not look down You must not look down, you must not look down Their hands are full and their hearts are hollow You must not look down
'Yours is mine' he said 'and mine belongs to me That's just the way' he said 'it's clear you cannot see That you are lost and it's each one for his own Each one for his own' She said 'I'm strong I know I'll make the climb And many others are coming up behind And soon the child will make the clearer day Make the clearer day'
You must not look down, you must not look down Watch them fall and you're sure to follow You must not look down You must not look down, you must not look down Their hands are full and their hearts are hollow You must not look down
