Paul Westerberg

Lookin' Up in Heaven

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
