Miles Above

Papa took me when I was one,
on a trip to the far side of the sun,
Oh papa let's return,
if we get close we might get burned.
Mama took me when I was two,
up high in the sky in a big balloon,
Oh mama lets go down,
for we are miles above the ground.
Papa took me when I was three,
to the bottom of the deepest sea,
Oh papa, it is cold, and it is dark,
so let's go home.
Mama took me when I was four,
to walk along the forest floor, Oh mama, finally,
the place I'd like to be.

(Home, home home, home, home home, ....)

Papa took me when I was five,
down to the riverside, Oh papa,
let's be gone,
the sun set and the river is long.
Mama took me when I was six,
to the fields of trees,
with fruits to pick,
Oh mama, is that all,
can we come back tomorrow?
Papa took me when I was seven
to a party with all his friends,
Oh papa, I know you're tall,
but in this room I feel small.
Mama took me when I was eight,
to climb along the mountain face,
Oh mama, finally,
the place I'd like to be.
