From way up here the earth looks very small
It's just a little ball of rock and sea and sand
No bigger than my hand

From way up here the earth looks very small
They shouldn't fight at all
Down there upon that little sphere
Their time is short, a life is just a day
You think they'd find a way
You think they'd get along
And fill their sunlit days with song

From way up here the earth is very small
It's just a little ball, so small, so beautiful and dear
Their time is short, a life is just a day
Must be a better way
To use the time that runs among the distant suns

From way up here the earth is very small
It's just a little ball, so small, so beautiful and dear
