Annie Scherer - Elevate Lyrics

You saw the dark side of me
Made me rise like sunsets, summer breeze
Couldn't even take me there no more
Fifty shades of royal, Kennedy
Cooler than the winter, you and me
So cold that I got stuck in blue
Bluer than the waves on the shore
Bluer than your eyes could be no more
So I watch your resting eyelids close
And open a new door
And it's been so long under water I forgot how to breathe
'Cause I spent so long in the dark I forgot how to see
But I'm okay now
I'm okay somehow
Elevate me now
Elevate
He sees a new side of me
Yellow rays of sun so sparkling
No more days of rusty old long sleeves
Like a flower held on by the root
Faded out till the water fills it
I'm half full, I'm glowing, I'm in bloom
So I write his name to pass the time
I stop living all my past lives
I know I won't forget, I'll just stop calling you mine
And it's been so long under water I forgot how to breathe
'Cause I spent so long in the dark I forgot how to see
But I'm okay now
I'm okay somehow
Elevate me now
Elevate
I never thought I'd feel so new
Fresher than the rain like dew
I'll let my wings out because of you
Because of you
Because of you
I never thought i'd fly
'Cause of you I think I'll be just fine
Please don't make me come back down
I think this time I really might just drown
And it's been so long under water I forgot how to breathe
'Cause I spent so long in the dark I forgot how to see
But I'm okay now
I'm okay somehow
Elevate me now
Elevate

You saw the dark side of me
Made me rise like sunsets, summer breeze
Couldn't even take me there no more
Fifty shades of royal, Kennedy
Cooler than the winter, you and me
So cold that I got stuck in blue
Bluer than the waves on the shore
Bluer than your eyes could be no more
So I watch your resting eyelids close
And open a new door
And it's been so long under water I forgot how to breathe
'Cause I spent so long in the dark I forgot how to see
But I'm okay now
I'm okay somehow
Elevate me now
Elevate
He sees a new side of me
Yellow rays of sun so sparkling
No more days of rusty old long sleeves
Like a flower held on by the root
Faded out till the water fills it
I'm half full, I'm glowing, I'm in bloom
So I write his name to pass the time
I stop living all my past lives
I know I won't forget, I'll just stop calling you mine
And it's been so long under water I forgot how to breathe
'Cause I spent so long in the dark I forgot how to see
But I'm okay now
I'm okay somehow
Elevate me now
Elevate
I never thought I'd feel so new
Fresher than the rain like dew
I'll let my wings out because of you
Because of you
Because of you
I never thought i'd fly
'Cause of you I think I'll be just fine
Please don't make me come back down
I think this time I really might just drown
And it's been so long under water I forgot how to breathe
'Cause I spent so long in the dark I forgot how to see
But I'm okay now
I'm okay somehow
Elevate me now
