Lifted Up (1985)

Tell me what does it take to make good now

How many years do you wait?

Oh, and now all of the clouds are combining

The flickering light's just a flame

Oh, but yeah, I'm so tired

I've been away for so many years

But I guess I'll just wait a bit longer

I'll stay till they open the gates, oh, but yeah

All my life I stay here waiting

Every new year always making me

Feel as though there's nothing up there but

One day you came out of nowhere

1985 was a good year

The sky broke apart and you appeared

Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer

I won't lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted off the ground

I took your hands and pulled you down

Because 1985 was a good year

I won't lie, I knew you would belong here

Oh well, how many years has it been now?

How many days went to waste?

Now the rain and the thunder are clashing

The sun's got a smile 'cross the face

Oh, but yeah, I'm so tired

I fight so hard and come back beaten

Beacon, burn through it brightly

We soared through a sliver of space, oh, but yeah

All my life I stay here waiting

Every new year always making me

Feel as though there's nothing up there but

One day you came out of nowhere

1985 was a good year

The sky broke apart and you appeared

Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer

I won't lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted off the ground

I took your hands and pulled you down

Because 1985 was a good year

I won't lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted up

Lift us back to the sky and the world above

Lifted up

Lifted up

1985 was a good year

The sky broke apart and you appeared

Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer

I won't lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted off the ground

I took your hands and pulled you down

Because 1985 was a good year

I won't lie, I knew you would belong here
