Lyrics 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
That 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′ve stayed 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 then you appeared
Dropped from the heavens, they called me a dreamer
I won′t lie I knew you belonged 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 belonged here
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 beating
Beacon, burn through it brightly
The soul through a sliver of space
All my life, I've stayed here waiting
Every new year always making me
Feel as though there's nothing up there but
But one day you came out of nowhere
1985 was a good year
The sky broke apart then you appeared
Dropped from the heavens, they called me a dreamer
I won′t lie I knew you belonged 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 belonged 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 then you appeared
Dropped from the heavens, they called me a dreamer
I won't lie, I knew you 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 belonged here
