Raise You Up

Ooh ooh

Once I was afraid, but then you came along

Put your faith in me and I was challenged to be strong

When I lost my way, you were there to see me through

Now let Lola lend some love and do the same for you!

Feed your fire, to take you higher

We’ll light you up like a live wire

Celebrate you, to elevate you,

When you struggle to step, we’ll take a helping hand

If you hit the dust

Let me raise you up

When your bubble busts

Let me raise you up

If your glitter rusts

Let me raise you up

(And up)

Raise you up

Raise you up

Raise you up

Never put much heart in anything before

You strut into my life and help me go for something more

Now I stand up for myself

Now I stand out from the crowd

Now I’m standing on high heels, if dad could see me now!

Feed your fire, to take you higher

We’ll light you up like a live wire

Celebrate you, to elevate you

When you struggle to step, we’ll take a helping hand

If you hit the dust

Let me raise you up

When your bubble busts

Let me raise you up

If your glitter rusts

Let me raise you up

(And up)

Raise you up

Raise you up

Raise you up

I knew you had it in you

I knew what you could tell

You believed in me

Let me be right for you

Your stumbling days are done

Now we’re walking on air

I was a loose shoe but you need two to make a pair

Feed your fire, to take you higher

We’ll light you up like a live wire

Celebrate you, to elevate you

When you struggle to step, we’ll take a helping hand

Look out Melan

Here comes Don

And Don has brought some friends along

When you start things out of certainty

Then the ones you love

Are gonna set you free yeah!

Woo!

Feed your fire, to take you higher

We’ll light you up like a live wire

Celebrate you, to elevate you,

When you struggle to step, we’ll take a helping hand

If you hit the dust

Let me raise you up

When your bubble busts

Let me raise you up

If your glitter rusts

Let me raise you up (and up)

Raise you up

Raise you up

If you hit the dust

Let me raise you up

When your bubble busts

Let me raise you up

If your glitter rusts

Let me raise you up (and up)

Raise you up

And up

And up
