You Lift Me Up

from Have We Met Before? by Lucia Comnes

/

about

Full band, robust vocals and choir in choruses, dramatic drums, keys intro, four organ sounds from hammond to chirpy, electric guitar solo; uptempo, dance-inducing gospel folk rock with bold lyrical statements - a rocking, joyful song celebrating the power of friendship. A song dedicated to that friend who always makes you feel better, especially when family is bringing your spirit down. A monster of a song, high energy and committed to raising the forces of positivity and happiness in the room. Lucia has been a long-time fan of the gospel rock band from Ireland - The Hothouse Flowers - and would love to hear their take on this song.

lyrics

You Lift Me Up

When your mother wonders why you didn’t call
And your father thinks you don’t see him anymore
When your own brother he won’t look you in the eye
And no one understands the tears that you cry

I meant to call you up so many times
And now I need somebody on the line

You lift me up when I’m feeling down
You lift me up and I come around
You lift me up when I’m feeling down
You lift me up and I come around

I always thought you had it all figured out
The love you wanted and the job that made you proud
When my phone lit up and you asked if I was free
It makes me feel so good you’re reaching out to me

If you’re carrying a heavy load
I’ll be your friend just wanna let you know

I meant to call you up so many times
And now I need somebody on the line

You lift me up, when I’m feeling down,
You lift me up, and I come around
You lift me up, You lift me up
You lift me up, when I’m feeling down
You lift me up, to higher ground
You lift me up, You lift me up
