[Verse 1]
When the light fades on a long bad day
I sometimes weaken
Then I turn to see
You've been waiting for me
I know I'm not beaten
[Chorus]
'Cause you, you lift me up
You lift me up
You lift me up
You do, uh huh
You lift me up
You lift me up
You lift me up, you
[Verse 2]
Coming home sometimes
I catch the headlines
It's raining since Saturday night
And the trains run late
I'm stuck at Notting Hill Gate
But you'll make it alright
[Chorus]
'Cause you, you lift me up
You lift me up
You lift me up
You do
Oh you lift me up (Make it)
You lift me up (Alright)
You lift me up
You do
[Bridge]
Such a little thing
Our love won't make the world alright
But love makes sense of life
And that's enough, at least tonight
[Verse 3]
Hey
Oh
Oh, mmm hmm
So late at night maybe
When you call me baby
The day will just fall away
[Chorus]
And you, you lift me up (Make it)
You lift me up (Alright)
You lift me up
You do
Oh, you lift me up (Make it)
You lift me up (Alright)
You lift me up, you
[Outro]
You lift me (Make it alright)
Lift me baby
You lift me (Make it alright)
You
You lift me
Lift me baby
You lift me (Make it alright)
You lift me (Make it alright)
You lift me
Uh huh, oh
When the light fades on a long bad day
I sometimes weaken
Then I turn to see
You've been waiting for me
I know I'm not beaten
[Chorus]
'Cause you, you lift me up
You lift me up
You lift me up
You do, uh huh
You lift me up
You lift me up
You lift me up, you
[Verse 2]
Coming home sometimes
I catch the headlines
It's raining since Saturday night
And the trains run late
I'm stuck at Notting Hill Gate
But you'll make it alright
[Chorus]
'Cause you, you lift me up
You lift me up
You lift me up
You do
Oh you lift me up (Make it)
You lift me up (Alright)
You lift me up

You lift me (Make it alright)
Lift me baby
You lift me (Make it alright)
You
You lift me
Lift me baby
You lift me (Make it alright)
You lift me (Make it alright)
You lift me
Uh huh, oh
