Reach Your Hand Up High
Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
And maybe you'll touch the sky
Reach just a little higher and you may catch a butterfly
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
Up on your toes
Stretch your fingers
Stretch for the apple above you
Reach for the person who loves you
You can touch if you try
So reach reach reach reach reach your hand up high
Reach for a leaf, reach for a cloud, reach for a sky of blue
Reach for the sun, shining on me and you
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
And maybe you'll touch a star
Reach just a little bit higher you never know how tall you are
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
Up on your toes
Lift your face up
Stretch for the promise that lingers
Just past the tip of your fingers
You can touch if you try
So reach, reach, reach, reach, reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
And maybe you'll touch the sky
Reach just a little higher and you may catch a butterfly
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
Up on your toes
Stretch your fingers
Stretch for the apple above you
Reach for the person who loves you
You can touch if you try
So reach reach reach reach reach your hand up high
Reach for a leaf, reach for a cloud, reach for a sky of blue
Reach for the sun, shining on me and you
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
And maybe you'll touch a star
Reach just a little bit higher you never know how tall you are
So reach your hand up high
Your hand up high
Up on your toes
Lift your face up
Stretch for the promise that lingers
Just past the tip of your fingers
You can touch if you try
So reach, reach, reach, reach, reach your hand up high
