James Arthur Get Down

Outside there's a bird and it is singing

And outside of my window, there's a life

I feel like someone's talking to my spirit

They tell me that there's reasons to survive

 

I could draw you a picture

I could write on my face

I could read you a scripture of tales

 

And I know no matter how much colder

Or how much I carry on my shoulders

As long as I'm standing, I'll be closer

'Cause it ain't over, 'til it's over

 

But we don't get down, oh

No, we don't get down, oh

No, we can turn this 'round

And maybe

It's today, ah yeah

 

'Cause all these scenes of grief got my head spinnin'

And we're dancing on the edge of a knife

And could I be your hero or your villain

Uh, I guess it just depends in whose eyes

 

I could draw you a picture

I could write on my fist

I could read you a scripture of this

 

And I know no matter how much colder

Or how much I carry on my shoulders

As long as I'm standing, I'll be closer

'Cause it ain't over, 'til it's over

 

But we don't get down, oh

No, we don't get down, oh

No, we can turn this 'round

And maybe

It'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 up

No I don't get down

'Cause you lift me up

No I don't get down

'Cause you lift me up

No I don't get down

'Cause you lift me up

I don't get down

'Cause you lift me up

No 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, oh

No, we don't get down, oh

No, we can turn this 'round

And maybe

It's today, ah yeah
