Lyrics
High Enough To Carry You Over
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.
No more barricades, slowly diffusing
I'll be leaving now, nobody's losing
If you could play your part, stay in resistance
Every fault would fade into the distance
Run if you like
All of the mistakes that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny
Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over
And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
No more clarity, only confusion
Every focused thought, just an illusion
If I could see you now, if you would listen
Every fault would fade into the distance
Run if you like
All of the mistakes that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny
Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over
And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
And you are
If I only hadn't given you up
If you only hadn't given me up
And you are
If I only hadn't given you up
Losin' my breath and leaving' the rest
Run if you like
All of the mistakes that you left behind
Hold me down
You can't deny and I can't deny
Open your eyes
I'll look away and you come around
To build your words
High enough to carry you over
And I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up, me up)
Then I never would've given you up
(Never would've given you up, you up)
If you only hadn't given me up
(Only hadn't given me up)
