Soft Cell - On An Up lyrics
Artist: Soft Cell
album: Cruelty Without Beauty (Remastered Edition)
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
Even little dreams are aspirations
Out run your limitations
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
And leave you on an up
Not to cry
On an up
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
Even little dreams are aspirations
Out run your limitations
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
And leave you on an up
Not to cry
On an up
