Lifted Up (1985) - Passion Pit

Tell me what does it take to make good now

How many years do you wait?

Oh, and now all of the clouds are combining

The flickering light s just a flame

Oh but yeah, I m so tired

I ve been away for so many years

But I guess I ll just wait a bit longer

I ll stay til they open the gates

Oh but yeah

All my life I stay here waiting

Every new year, always making me

Feel as though there s nothing up there but

One day you came out of nowhere

1985 was a good year

The sky broke apart and you appeared

Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer

I won t lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted off the ground

I took your hands and pulled you down

Because 1985 was a good year

I won t lie, I knew you would belong here

Oh well, how many years has it been now?

How many days went to waste?

Now the rain and the thunder are clashing

The Sun s got a smile cross the face

Oh, but yeah I m so tired

I fight so hard and come back beaten

Beacon, burn through it brightly

It soared through a sliver of space

Oh but yeah, all my life I stay here waiting

Every new year, always making me

Feel as though there s nothing up there but

One day you came out of nowhere

1985 was a good year

The sky broke apart and you appeared

Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer

I won t lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted off the ground

I took your hands and pulled you down

Because 1985 was a good year

I won t lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted up

Lift us back to the sky and the world above

Lifted up

Lifted up

1985 was a good year

The sky broke apart and you appeared

Dropped from the heavens, they call me a dreamer

I won t lie, I knew you would belong here

Lifted off the ground

I took your hands and pulled you down

Because 1985 was a good year

I won t lie, I knew you would belong h
