When I was a young boy, I would dream about life
And wonder just how sweet it would be
Baby, I got lucky when I met you that night
Now, you'll always have this promise from me

No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high I get

Up here on the mountain, it gets crazy sometimes
So crazy, I don't know what to do
When I've had it up to here with all of their lies
I can count on you to tell me the truth

No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high I get

You are the one who turned me around
You helped me keep my feet on the ground

No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high

No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high

No matter how high I get, I'll always look up to you
You'll always be number one, I'll settle for number two
You've always been there for me, well baby, I must confess
I'll always look up to you no matter how high I get
