Nonpronto - Stand And Hold It Up lyrics

[Verse 1] I've heard love can shine as bright as the sun It can burn like a bright blue flame Lately we flicker weak Like a candle in the middle of a pouring rain I've heard love can be as deep as an ocean As wide as the river Nile You and I trickle by, running dry Like we've been under the heat for a while [Pre-Chorus] We were walking on the clouds until it rained And we fell too Now the sky is falling down and I don't know what else I can do [Chorus] But try to stand and hold it up With my two hands just long enough To understand that giving up means saying goodbye [Verse 2] I know love can mend a broken soul Love can make you heal But sometimes you're left paralyzed Too numb to even feel [Pre-Chorus] We were walking on the clouds until it rained And we fell too Now the sky is falling down and I don't know what else I can do [Chorus] But try to stand and hold it up With my two hands just long enough To understand that giving up means saying goodbye Before my weary arms give way And we're pinned down and we're forced to stay I'll stand and I'll watch you walk away Then wonder why, why, why why [Chorus] But try to stand and hold it up With my two hands just long enough To understand that giving up means saying goodbye Before my weary arms give way And we're pinned down and we're forced to stay I'll stand and I'll watch you walk away Then wonder why I'll wonder why
