Outside there´s a bird and it is singing
And outside of my window, there´s a life
I feel like someone´s talking to my spirit
They tell me that there´s reasons to survive

I could draw you a picture
I could write on my face
I could read you a scripture of tales

And I know no matter how much colder
Or how much I carry on my shoulders
As long as I´m standing, I´ll be closer
´Cause it ain´t over, ´til it´s over

But we don´t get down, oh
No, we don´t get down, oh
No, we can turn this ´round
And maybe
It´s today, ah yeah

´Cause all these scenes of grief got my head spinnin´
And we´re dancing on the edge of a knife
And could I be your hero or your villain
Uh, I guess it just depends in whose eyes

I could draw you a picture
I could write on my fist
I could read you a scripture of this

And I know no matter how much colder
Or how much I carry on my shoulders
As long as I´m standing, I´ll be closer
´Cause it ain´t over, ´til it´s over

But we don´t get down, oh
No, we don´t get down, oh
No, we can turn this ´round
And maybe
It´s today, ah yeah

I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up (you lift me up)
No I don´t get down (I don´t get down)
´Cause you lift me up (oh ´cause you lift me up)
No I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up
No I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up
No I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up
No I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up
I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up
No I don´t get down
´Cause you lift me up

And I know no matter (I know no matter)
How much colder (how much colder)
Or how much I carry on my shoulders
(How much I carry on my shoulders)
As long as I´m standing, I´ll be closer (I´ll be closer)
´Cause it ain´t over (it ain´t over)
´Til it´s over (´til it´s over)

´Cause we don´t get down, oh
No, we don´t get down, oh
No, we can turn this ´round
And maybe
It´s today, ah yeah
