about

Lyrics by Malvina Reynolds, Music by Pete Seeger

lyrics

From way up here,
From way up here,
The earth looks very small
It's just a little ball
Of stone and sea and sand
No bigger than my hand.

From way up here,
From way up here,
The earth looks very small,
They shouldn't fight at all
Down there, on that little sphere.

Time is short
Their lives are just a day.
You think they'd find a way to get along
And fill their sunlit days with song.
