Up where the sun resides
Can I be up there also?
If I use my legs and jump up high
Or raise my arms up far
If I promise to be careful, I swear that I won’t fall!
If I fly to the moon
And jump from star to star
Can I land on its shiny surface
With no help at all
I can’t wait to peek across the edge
And see earth down below
All tiny dots and little spots
While I’m up here at the top
Finally, I'm the tallest, the strongest, the farthest
I've reached the highest, and I am the mightiest
Now with all this space between us
It seems I’ve reached my zenith
