Somebody told me once in a lifetime 
Destiny finds you and blows you away 
Spins you in circles pulls you in pieces 
Bleeds you like Jesus and goes on its way 

But its oh so simple sometimes 
Just to let your heart open wide 
If you want to get to heaven then you gotta take a ride 

Chorus

Love lift me wherever you are 
Convince me I'm safe in your arms 
Love lift me make sense of it all 
Teach me to fly and don't let me fall 

Somebody told me love makes you stupid 
Makes you go crazy makes you go blind 
Comes uninvited and leaves when it wants to 
Calls you at midnight and ties up the line 

But its oh so sweet when its right 
There's nothin better 
And you swear you won't but you might 
Gotta fumble in the dark if you wanna see the light 

Chorus 

And when its all said and done 
Its just the same for everyone 
You're busy making your plans 
Love's like a bird baby 
Flyin' out of your hands 

And it's oh so hard to explain 
You don't know nothing 
When your heart gets hold of your brain 
But still we try 
Better batten down the hatches baby 
Here we go again 

Chorus 

Repeat chorus 
Lift me up 
Only love can take me higher 
I wanna fly babe
