Once Things Look Up

I put a wager on uncertainty
It's funny when you wager how you feel
I hit the breaking point
Then broke on through
I'm never certain when it comes to you

Once things look up
I come falling down
Too deep to take a step
And look around
Once things look up
I come falling down

I bottle up the pieces
(And repair)
But every time we break
I'm building still
Stand back and marvel at what we have made
It's hard to notice when you run away

Once things look up
I come falling down
Too deep to take a step
I'm buried now
Once things look up
I come falling down

Wouldn't it nice
If we could both be right
So we could go to bed each day
Without a single fight
And we would be alright
And you could say goodnight
Instead of just
Goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye goodbye

Ah

Once you look up
Sun will hide your frowns
Too light to see the dark
So hidden now

Once things look up
I come falling down
I try and nothing's there
Behind the clouds
Ah

Once I look up
All comes falling down
