about

Thoughts from the sky above Phoenix
one mic, one take

lyrics

I caught a flight to Phoenix
I wish you could've seen it
The starts that danced over the wings
Oh how they shout, oh how they sing

Look up, look up, look up, you're gonna miss it
Look up, look out, looking, that's all a wish is

Shooting stars and on their streets
And the tails all tangle around me
The voices feel familiar
they sound like me but sillier

The city's all wrung out to dry
the dusty ground breathes out a sigh
Mountains dressed up in the dark
Rise up just like my lover's arms

Look up, look up, look up, you're gonna miss it
Look up, look out, looking, that's all a wish is

Looking from up high out west
I write the songs I like the best
I disconnect, I start to roll
I find old pieces of my soul

I'm in the clouds, I think of you
From Both Sides Now I still look Blue
But blue feels warm and scared and real
Blue feels how I wanna feel

Look up, look up, look up, you're gonna miss it
Look up, look out, looking, that's all a wish is

I am a child, I am a song
I know desire, and I get it wrong
And so I ask, "What do I need?"
Good company and a place to sleep

I wish that I could linger here
And watch the days all disappear
Give me the stars and let me stay
In Phoenix for another day

Look up, look up, look up, you're gonna miss it
Look up, look out, looking
Look up, look up, look up, you're gonna miss it
Look up, look out, looking, that's all a wish is
