[Verse 1:]
Everyday I can tell our love is growing stronger
My blood runs hot
When I think of what we've got
And it's because we care for each other
That the bad times have passed us by
We're on the rise
Can't you tell?
We're moving up to love
Can't you tell?
We're moving up

[Chorus:]
We're on the rise! (We're on the rise, on the rise)
We're on the rise! (We're on the rise, on the rise)

[Verse 2:]
Since the day we began
On our love journey
We've seen love come
And we've seen love go
We've come a long way
In a short time
Only to find
We're still on the rise
Can't you tell?
We're moving up to love
Can't you tell?
We're moving up
We're on the rise (we're on the rise)
And we wanna keep moving up
Moving up to love
Can't you tell

We're gonna keep moving up
We're never gonna give up
Take it to the top

[Verse 3:]
We're on our way
To a love with no ending
To live a life of
Purpose and meaning
With us I know it's gonna work
And it's because
We're still on the rise
Can't you tell?
We're moving up to love
Can't you tell?
We're moving up
We're on the rise (we're on the rise)
And we're gonna keep moving up
MOving up to love, to love
Can't you tell?

We're on the rise
Can't you tell?
And we're gonna keep moving up (we're on the rise)
Moving up to love

We're on the rise
We're gonna keep moving up
