Remember how we used to be So happy, just naturally Now you don’t know me like I know you This isn’t what we had planned Sticking our heads into the sand You can’t just sit there Pretending to be unaware
But you’ve gotta get stronger Before it’s ok You’ve gotta get deeper Before it stays You’ve gotta get wiser To make a new day So I won’t turn you away
You’re frozen in my history When you can make it new for me You made it colder My autumn soldier No one else can take the blame Now we don’t have to stay the same The time we spent together No one can take away
But you’ve gotta work harder Before it’s ok You’ve gotta get higher To make a new day You’ve gotta be a fighter Before it stays So I won’t turn you away
Where can we go If we don’t grow We won’t get stronger And though the river knows See it flow I can’t wait any longer
But you’ve gotta get higher To make a new day You’ve gotta get closer Before love fades We’ve gotta get stronger Before it’s ok So I won’t turn you away
Before the love fades You’ve gotta get stronger So I won’t turn you away
