Lyrics Not Look Down - Dougie MacLean

Not Look Down

From up here she said there’s no compromise
I’ve seen them laughing and they’re in up to their eyes
And all their clever words are whistling in the wind
Whistling in the wind
«From up here» she said «you get the widest view
Someone’s watching no matter what you do And if you hesitate they steal away your time
Steal away your time»
You must not look down, you must not look down
Watch them fall and you’re sure to follow
You must not look down
You must not look down, you must not look down
Their hands are full and their hearts are hollow
You must not look down
«Yours is mine» he said «and mine belongs to me That’s just the way» he said «it's clear you cannot see
That you are lost and it’s each one for his own
Each one for his own»
She said «I'm strong I know I’ll make the climb
And many others are coming up behind
And soon the child will make the clearer day
Make the clearer day»
You must not look down, you must not look down
Watch them fall and you’re sure to follow
You must not look down
You must not look down, you must not look down
Their hands are full and their hearts are hollow
You must not look down
