lyrics

Lift Your Spirits

Tired of grieving for dreams that did not come true;
Time to face the facts I s’pose. (still wearing my old clothes)
While we’re still breathing, then all I need is you;
That’s the way the river flows.

Can’t believe it, when you think how our love has grown –
And it’s nice not to be alone. (when are you coming home?)
If life had meaning I had to go and find me some;
What I found has made me whole.

Before I met you I was one –
A lonely man and afraid.
I never wanna be again.
I used to wish that I was made
Stronger, better than I am –
You tell me it’ll be alright,
One day we’ll be free of pain.
You lift my spirit to the light.

Get it in you, pure love energy!
And it’s free for everybody,
Yes you and me girl.
Feel the universe flow through you.

When you’re feeling that life is shades of blue,
I am with you all the way. (so tell me ‘bout your day)
It’s revealing but I believe in you;
Let your tears wash away.

Never wanna say goodbye,
Never mind the cold outside –
Love is gonna get us by;
You lift my spirit to the light.
I often dream that when we die
Angels teach us how to fly.
Love is gonna make it right –
Lift your spirit to the light.

I bear witness.
