Raise The Roof
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Raise the roof, that I might see the stars
To gain wisdom, to see things for what they are
Please, I need proof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Trapped in the snare with too much dreaming to bear
Fearful and frantic, hopeless and a romantic
Inspired but tired, I run this wide-open course
Like the sagging spirit of an older horse
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Peel back this backdrop, like the lids from my eyes
Put you in plain view, let me visualize
Touch me again in my dreams till I feel
Touch me again till I wake and it's real
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
The wisest advice to me that I didn't reach
Was to lock up the heart, but keep the key within reach
Touch me again in my dreams till I feel
Touch me again till I wake and it's real
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Raise the roof
Dance till you fall
Love till you die
Raise the roof
