Off in the distance there is the beautiful horizon...
(dialogue)
Gleaming and radiant,
It's what I'll keep my eyes on...
(dialogue)
As the world turns to face the sun
And start another day,
It suddenly occurs to me
That maybe we can find another way.
Look at the sky,
Full of hope and promise.
It's a shining ideal.
How I real when I look at the sky.
(dialogue)
Daily we make them pay
Their nickels, dimes and quarters...
(dialogue)
Daily we break them cause
We have to follow orders.
(dialogue)
And we keep filling moneybags
With broken lives and dreams,
But what's it for? I can't ignore
This black, immoral profit-making schemes.
Look at the sky,
High above this madness.
Here below, feel our shame.
It must stop in the name of the sky.
(big dialogue..."It's blinding me!")
Look at the sky!
There's a great, big heart there!
Ther's a heart in the sky.
There just is. Don't ask why,
It's the sky!
(dialogue)
(Back vocals):
Your heart kmows all things great and true-
The thing mere brains can never know!
Your heart points to the great, big blue-
Where the people allegiance must go!
(Tell me where!)
Look at the sky!
(Look at the sky!)
That's our inspiration!
(Look at te sky!)
(choir):
We can win if we try.
We begin when we look at the sky!
(dialogue)
Look at the sky (Off in the dinstance
Standart of the there's a beautiful
People horizon)
(choir):
It's a banner so wide,
Flying proudly with pride in the sky-
In the sky--
(choir joining)
In the sky!
