Get Down
Outside there's a bird and it is singingAnd outside of my window, there's a lifeI feel like someone's talking to my spiritThey tell me that there's reasons to survive
I could draw you a pictureI could write on my faceI could read you a scripture of tales
And I know no matter how much colderOr how much I carry on my shouldersAs long as I'm standing, I'll be closer'Cause it ain't over, 'til it's over
But we don't get down, ohNo, we don't get down, ohNo, we can turn this 'roundAnd maybeIt's today, ah yeah
'Cause all these scenes of grief got my head spinnin'And we're dancing on the edge of a knifeAnd could I be your hero or your villainUh, I guess it just depends in whose eyes
I could draw you a pictureI could write on my fistI could read you a scripture of this
And I know no matter how much colderOr how much I carry on my shouldersAs long as I'm standing, I'll be closer'Cause it ain't over, 'til it's over
But we don't get down, ohNo, we don't get down, ohNo, we can turn this 'roundAnd maybeIt'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 upNo I don't get down'Cause you lift me upNo I don't get down'Cause you lift me upNo I don't get down'Cause you lift me upI don't get down'Cause you lift me upNo 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, ohNo, we don't get down, ohNo, we can turn this 'roundAnd maybeIt's today, ah yeah
