On An Up — Soft Cell

You in the clouds over there Hanging on with a wing and a prayer Forget your regrets and forgiving Life is not for lasting but living Don't be one of those lonely people Waiting for a bus that never comes Out run your limitations Even little dreams are aspirations I don't want to leave you With a cloud over your head Take some time to reassess And think of what I've said

On an up On an up I'm gonna leave you on an up On an up On an up I'm gonna leave you on an up I'm gonna try and leave you on an up Not to cry And leave you on an up

I don't blame you If you believe there's no beauty in the world But if you take some time to look You'll find it there for sure Too much cynicism Ridicule and vile derision But if you're guilty then I am too For seeing life through shades of blue

Don't want to leave your head Full of dirty streets and falling rain I want to leave you with a little sun Here it comes again

On an up On an up I'm gonna leave you on an up On an up On an up I'm gonna leave you on an up I'm gonna try and leave you on an up Not to cry And leave you on an up

You in the clouds over there Hanging on with a wing and a prayer We're all part of the same plan Trying to get through life the best we can

On an up On an up I'm gonna leave you on an up On an up On an up I'm gonna leave you on an up I'm gonna try and leave you on an up Not to cry And leave you on an up On an up
