Nelly Furtado - Phoenix lyrics

[Verse 1] Mother Just lay your head down You been running through flames of the candle And your done It’s time to find your wings again Turn your face towards the sun Some battles can’t be won [Chorus] Like a phoenix Rising from the ashes Like a phoenix Rising from the flame [Post-Chorus] You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright again [Verse 2] Oh, brother Your hands are tired You’ve been holding the world up And you’re losing your grip If you knew now what you knew then Then maybe you’d be whole again But everyone falls down [Chorus] But, like a phoenix Rising from the ashes Like a phoenix Rising from the pain [Post-Chorus] You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright again [Bridge] You build a castle in the clouds Mind the fire burning down But you’re still standing anyway When all you needed from the start Was waiting there inside your heart to be born again [Chorus] Like a phoenix Like a phoenix You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright again, alright again You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright You’re gonna be alright again
