[Verse 1]
As for me, my last year sucked
I was gonna make a couple zillion bucks
But I stayed home and twiddled my thumbs
I guess that's just the way it goes
Seasons come that make you grow
And then, sometimes, you'll find a little luck

[Chorus]
But things are looking up
Things are looking up

[Verse 2]
I hope love and peace you'll find
After all your painful times
And life feels lighter than you could ever know
And I'd give you a billion hugs
Just to say that you're enough
And these hard years just took you to higher bluffs

[Chorus]
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
(Things are looking up)
[Verse 2]
I hope love and peace you'll find
After all your painful times
And life feels lighter than you could ever know
And I'd give you a billion hugs
Just to say that you're enough
And these hard years just took you to higher bluffs

[Chorus]
But things are looking up
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
Things are looking up
