If I told you I was down, I was down, would you help me?
~#**************#~
Told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
I need your strength, Ill be yours someday
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
I have this human love, it shattered once or twice
~#**************#~
It pulls me up and down rivers filled with jagged ice
~#**************#~
Every day, Im wanting somethin I aint havin
~#**************#~
Mhm, mhm
~#**************#~
I have this human heart, my mother told me so
~#**************#~
She said, “This sh— can go to pieces, boy, be careful”
~#**************#~
But you and me, and me and you got somethin magic
~#**************#~
Mhm, so I say to you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, would you help me?
~#**************#~
Told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
I need your strength, Ill be yours someday
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
Told you I was broke, I was broke, would you fix me?
~#**************#~
Told you I was down to the line, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
I need your strength, Ill be yours someday
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
I have this human love, my mother told me so
~#**************#~
She said, “This world can bring you down, so dont be swinging low”
~#**************#~
‘Cause you and me, and me and you got somethin magic
~#**************#~
Mhm, so I say to you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, would you help me?
~#**************#~
Told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~
I need your strength, Ill be yours someday
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, would you lift me up?
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
I got my problems, but I dont need you to solve em
~#**************#~
Man, I dont care, like it or not, all my sh— is right there
~#**************#~
I wear my issues like tattoos across my chest
~#**************#~
And when people notice, I tell em, “You aint seen nothin yet”
~#**************#~
Brother, lift me
~#**************#~
Brother, lift me
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Lift me up and be my strength, Ill be yours someday
~#**************#~
If I told you I was down, I was down, I was down
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
Lift me up
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
I got my problems, but I dont need you to solve em (Lift me up)
~#**************#~
Man, I dont care, like it or not, all my sh— is right there (Lift me up)
~#**************#~
I wear my issues like tattoos across my chest (Lift me up)
~#**************#~
And when people notice, I tell em, “You aint seen nothin yet” (Lift me up)
