Lyrics
Intro
Verse 1
I won’t lie, I’m not doing fine But I won’t cry although in decline ‘cause I know why this thing must be done When we’re looking back I’m hoping it won’t feel so long
Bridge
With no sense of purpose, I’m lost and can’t find my way, If I could just see you, I’d listen and heed what you say.
Chorus
“Lift your head, let’s talk a while, Remember the simplest things and they’ll make you smile. ‘cause life’s unpredictable; it’s not instinctively bound, Just reach for the stars but keep your feet on the ground”
Verse 2
It took so much it feels like a crime I can’t deny, I hate losing time I lost my breath but some lost much more I’d hold you for longer if I’d only known this before
Bridge
No sense of purpose, I’m lost and can’t find my way, If I could just see you, I’d listen and heed what’d you say.
Chorus
“Lift your head, let’s talk a while, Remember the simplest things and they’ll make you smile. Life’s unpredictable; it’s not instinctively bound, Just reach for the stars but keep your feet on the ground”
Chorus
“Dry your eyes, let’s talk a while, Remember the simplest things and they’ll make you smile. ‘cause life’s unpredictable; it’s not instinctively bound, Just reach for the stars but keep your feet on the ground”
