Lift Me Up (song #106)

Lift Me Up

I've been holding out for a while

Afraid of the storm that makes me smile

And I've been longing for your touch

To bring me back to what I need so much

I've been hiding behind your eyes

Afraid to get out from under the lies

And I've been longing for your love

To see me through and lift me up

Lift me up and let me go

Take me away as you hold me close

'Cuz what you have to give I need to know

Lift me up - lift me up

I’ve been lost inside your voice

Afraid to listen past all the noise

And I’ve been longing to stop losing all this ground

Only you can keep me from burning out

Lift me up and let me go

Take me away as you hold me close

'Cuz what you have to give I need to know

Lift me up - lift me up

It's a sin to not reach back

When life’s reaching for you 

It's a sin to not reach back

When fate’s sending you a sign

I've been holding out for a while

Afraid of the storm that makes me smile

And I've been longing for your touch

To bring me back to what I need so much

Lift me up and let me go

Take me away as you hold me close

'Cuz what you have to give I need to know

Lift me up - lift me up
