Lifts You Up

Beth Hart · Live At Paradiso [2005]

I stole the outside

Runnin' to the sun

I am alive, loud as a golden gun

I killed my pride

So once again I'd see

Live and learn

Fallen one thousand times, I feel the burn

There's fire from a crazy sky, I sealed concern

So once again I'd be



It lifts you up, it puts you down

Then it feeds you life, then it lets you drown

While it holds your heart

Then it slowly tears you apart

And ya know life is what I mean



If I could, ya know I'd stand on the rock

Where Jesus stood

Innocence and evil, bad and good

Walkin' side by side

We got a way of makin' up our minds

How could I run? Just leave it all behind

When it breaks me up inside

Still, I

Refuse to hide and it is just what it is

And that's all right.
