Songwriter: Bruce Springsteen

[Verse 1]
I don't need your answered prayers
Or the chains your lover wears
I don't need your rings of gold
Or the secrets that you hold

[Chorus]
Lift me up, darling
Lift me up
And I'll fall with you, lift me up
Let your love lift me up

[Verse 2]
I don't need your sacred vow
Or the promise tomorrow brings
There, behind the morning clouds
I'll take the faith the daylight brings

[Chorus]
Lift me up, darling
Lift me up
And I'll fall with you, lift me up
Let your love lift me up

[Bridge]
When the morning bright
Lifts away this night
And the light above
We will find our love
We will find our love

[Verse 3]
Your skin, your hand upon my neck
This skin, your fingers on my skin
This kiss, this heartbeat, this breath
This heart, this heart, this wilderness

[Chorus]
Lift me up, darling
Lift me up
And I'll fall with you, lift me up
Let your love lift me up

[Chorus]
Lift me up, darling
Lift me up
And I'll fall with you, lift me up
Let your love lift me up

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen is a rock ‘n’ roll icon from the great state of New Jersey. Nicknamed “The Boss,” he’s known for spirited sax-powered anthems about working-class people making their way in the world. Backed by the trusty E Street Band, he’s sold more than 120 million records, won numerous awards (including 20 Grammys and an Oscar), sold out stadiums around the globe, and earned a place alongside his teenage heroes in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Although he’s a living legend who ranks among the most important artists in rock history, Springsteen wasn’t an overnight success. Around the time of his first album, 1973’s Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J., he was dismissed as just another “new Dylan"—some scruffy folk singer with a decent vocabulary looking to follow in Bob’s footsteps. In the decade that followed, Springsteen proved himself to be much more.

His breakthrough came with his third album, 1975’s Born to Run. The record hit No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and landed the singer-songwriter on the cover of both Time and Newsweek. Bruce nabbed his first chart-topping album five years later with The River, and in 1984, he went global with Born in the U.S.A., a critical and commercial smash that produced seven Top 10 singles.
