Lyrics

[00:09.56] Rain, rain on my face
[00:13.80] It hasn't stopped raining for days
[00:18.18] My world is a flood
[00:21.44] Slowly I become one with the mud
[00:25.37]
[00:25.78] But if I can't swim after forty days
[00:29.47] and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
[00:33.53] Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
[00:37.83] Lift me up
[00:41.90] Lift me up - when I'm falling
[00:46.11] Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
[00:50.38] Lift me up - I need you to hold me
[00:54.55] Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again
[01:08.66] Downpour on my soul
[01:12.01] Splashing in the ocean, I'm losing control
[01:16.72] Dark sky all around
[01:23.68] I can't feel my feet touching the ground
[01:24.37] But if I can't swim after forty days
[01:28.27] and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
[01:32.53] Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
[01:36.69] Lift me up
[01:40.79] Lift me up - when I'm falling
[01:45.03] Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
[01:49.24] Lift me up - I need you to hold me
[01:53.37] Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again
[01:58.21]
[02:15.24] Calm the storms that drench my eyes
[02:19.27] Dry the streams still flowing
[02:23.25] Casting down all the waves of sin
[02:27.42] And guilt that overthrow me
[02:32.06] But if I can't swim after forty days
[02:35.84] and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
[02:39.70] Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
[02:43.86] Lift me up
[02:48.12] Lift me up - when I'm falling
[02:52.29] Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
[02:56.50] Lift me up - I need you to hold me
[03:00.70] Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again
[03:04.71] Lift me up - when I'm falling
[03:08.41] Lift me up - I'm weak and I'm dying
[03:12.60] Lift me up - I need you to hold me
[03:16.56] Lift me up - Keep me from drowning again
