Love lives in New York City   He got a place off of the park   Heard he was standing in the ruins   And in his hands a broken heart   He called an army of his angels   I heard they had to hide their wings   It was them who brought you water   If you listen closely I know you can hear   The choir singing   Hey, hallelujah, baby   Rise Up   Hold out your hands and reach out   Higher   Get up on your feet   Rise Up   Let it flow though you, baby   Run it through your veins   Like a healing rain   Everywhere you'll see   Another reason to believe   I saw him down south of Canal Street   Right there in a mother's eyes   At a table in a restaurant window   In a taxi passing by   Love went running up the stairwell   When the sky came falling down   It was him in a newborn baby's cry   He was there to make that sound   That keeps this whole world spinning 'round   Rise Up   Hold out your hands and reach out   Higher   Get up on your feet   Rise Up   Let it flow though you, baby   Run it through your veins   Like a healing rain   Everywhere you'll see   Another reason to believe   It's different than it was before   Now we need it even more   Fire's falling from the sky   Innocence just said goodbye   It may never be the same   Maybe it was time to change   A time to grieve   A time to cry   A time to live   A time to fly
