    Title: Look At This Sky
    ttto: This Guy's In Love With You by Hal David & Burt Bacharach

    Look at this sky
    It's beautifully blue
    And see the ground
    The grass so green, a lovely view
    All the hues, land, sea, sky
    They almost make me want to cry
    With all this beauty
    I feel it's almost duty to

    Tell everyone
    Who thinks the world is drear
    It's only so
    When viewing through a mask of fear
    Tell me now, can you see
    The beauty that's so clear to me?
    The world's resplendent
    My heart is nigh transcendent, 'cause

    This world is fine
    Your world and mine
    Show me a sign
    You've joy unconfined
    You can free your mind

    Yes there are woes
    And everyone has lows
    Don't brood on those
    From low to high is how life flows
    Is this world I see well
    The one in which you want to dwell?
    Yes, you can see it
    If you can just believe it that

    This world is fine
    Your world and mine
    Don't just consign
    Your heart to a hole
    You can heal your soul

    Guessing a lyricist's opinions from his songs is as futile as
    guessing an author's opinions from his novels.
