This track, which almost stayed an instrumental, is an atmospheric song about the beauty of avionic exploration, travel, and discovery. It narrates tidbits of an enlightening slice of life crew on a ballooned voyage across the sea and covers the various articles they find, from a diamond ring to an isle ground. It is one of my first experimental songs with a freedom of audio effects and acoustics.
lyrics
Flying a zeppelin, high above the ground,
Sweeping the catwalk, a diamond ring I found,
I phoned the captain, said we found something new,
Showed my crew in the blue.
Flying a zeppelin, high above the ground,
Sweeping the open seas, an isle ground I found,
I phoned the navigator, said we found something new,
Showed my crew in the blue.
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here,
It's so beautiful from up here.
