All Up To You
|
|
Well, it seems no one can protect you
|
And your friends just don't understand
|
When your hopes and your courage neglect you
|
And no arm long enough to lend a hand
|
When your road seems like any other
|
Cold and dry, wonder why
|
You've just gotta believe one way or another
|
It's just gotta be worth one more try
|
And though the world is spitting venom
|
And there ain't nothing nobody else can do
|
Simply remember that it's all
|
All up to you
|
When your heart's been crushed like a baby
|
When the one you love is walking away
|
What's left of you is thinking how just maybe
|
You might find that's that special something left to say
|
And that cruel, cruel heaven above you
|
Let it be soft, just let her go, let her go
|
Facing it, she just doesn't love you
|
I know it hurts, Lord I know
|
And though without her, it seems you've got nothing
|
No matter all the heavy heartache you've been through
|
Truth of the matter, though it's hard to swallow
|
It's still all up to you
|
Up to you
|
I know sometimes the answer ain't easy
|
Sometimes it's hard enough to carry on
|
But I know somewhere, somebody needs me
|
If the entire loving universe was gone
|
All that I'm saying is that pain comes from you
|
From deep inside, don't run and hide
|
Unto thine own self you must be true
|
If you've ever laughed or ever cried
|
Now you could say I've had one too many
|
You could say I've had one too few
|
Either way, you know it's okay
|
I'd live on to fight just one more day
|
Call it a matter of foolish pride
|
But at least I could say that at least I tried
|
Once and forever, it's still all up to you
|
