Cheer Up! Lyrics

Cheer Up!
'Cause nothing really matters when you look up into outer space
It's a great big world and there's no need to cry

Cheer up!
We're all interconnected to the reaches of the galaxy
And my best friend says he came from the sky
He traveled to the Earth aboard a pink spaceship,
It's hard for him to hide behind those eyes

Cheer up!
The atoms in your body are as old as every dinosaur
You're a special part of one big grand design

Cheer up!
We're all in this together to discover what we're living for
Thirteen billion years and there's still time

Every night I wish upon a star so bright,
Waiting for the others to arrive

Cheer up!
'Cause nothing really matters when you look up into outer space
It's a great big world and there's no need to cry
Thirteen billion years and there's still time

Cheer Up!

A Great Big World's Ian Axel told The Huffington Post the story behind this song: "We had just visited Yosemite and saw all the stars for the first time," he said. "You just can't see any in New York City. And seeing them gave us a new perspective on everything."

"When we got home, I was talking to my parents and they were stressed out about something, and I wished they could've gotten to see what we saw in Yosemite," he continued. "That's what inspired this song. And also the fact that I had just gotten myself a Casio keyboard from the '80s, and also that we have a friend who we SWEAR is from another star system."
