Up in the sky



Way up in the sky where we cannot go

Live all the little snowflakes that I know

But one snowflake from the time she was small

Dreamed about the day she would get to fall


Now this one snowflake had peculiar thoughts

Of floating through the air only to be caught

On top of a tip of a stuck out tongue

Of a little girl who was very young


Now the air got colder as the days went by

There was much excitement up in the sky

Crystal was resting on her cloudy bed

Those peculiar thoughts running round her head


Way up in the sky where we cannot go

Live all the little snowflakes that I know

But one snowflake from the time she was small

Dreamed about the day she would get to fall


Crystal was a snowflake living in the clouds

One winter morning she said out loud,

“Hey everyone it’s time for me to go

The weather report says that it will snow.”

So she waved goodbye and she took to flight

Floated through the air because she was light

The wind picked up and started spinning her around

Crystal was dizzy when she saw the ground


It's a snow day. It's a snow day

Hey everybody it's a snow day


Way up in the sky where we cannot go

Live all the little snowflakes that I know

But one snowflake from the time she was small

Dreamed about the day she would get to fall


Lucy was playing in the yard outside

Her hands in the air, her mouth open wide

She spotted a snowflake up in the sky It was

Crystal of course that had caught her eye

As Crystal started spinning Lucy did too

Lucy got dizzy, nearly lost her shoe

Sheplanted her feet, then with a grin

Opened up her mouth and Crystal fell in.


Way up in the sky where we cannot go

Live all the little snowflakes that I know

But one snowflake from the time she was small

Dreamed about the day she would get to fall



Up in the sky - Behind the Scenes



Snow days are perfect for enjoying time with family and friends.


In the winter of 2016, we made the Up in the Sky YouTube video. We started inside by playing the song a couple times with me on guitar and Luke on piano. Then we went outside and filmed Luke trudging through the snow on his bike and Charlie playing with his friend, Cole, and our dog, Casey. I also happened to catch our neighbor, Maisy, walking by with her sled. She was delighted to make the final cut of the video. It was a full day and awelcome change from our normal routine. What do you like to do in the winter?


Writing stories and songs is fun for lots of reasons. One thing I like to do is give personalities to inanimate objects. How was crystal feeling on the day of her first snow storm? If you were a snowflake, where would you hope to land?
