Levantate Lyrics by Young Costello

Stories Told, Some New, Some Old

2022

[Verse 1]
Well I don’t wanna be the one
To have to tell you everything’s alright
When everything’s so wrong
But I’m not gonna lie to you
And tell you you’re the only one who’s ever felt this way
I’m just asking you to stay
Oh misfortune, she moves like a whisper
Although patient in her nature, she took your faith the day you kissed her
Here we stand
You’ve got your life on the line
It’s never easy
But you just have to give it some time
[Chorus]
We build it up and then it all falls down
I’ve come to find it’s just the way of the world
But I’m not gonna let you slip away
It’s not worth giving up the life you’ve made
This isn’t your escape
[Verse 2]
Well I know you don’t wanna listen
The empty bottle’s gone right to your head
The way it’s done before
But I just wish you’d open up your eyes
And see the damage that you’ve done
To yourself, to your woman, to your son
Oh misfortune, she moves like a whisper
Though abrasive in her nature, it always proves hard to resist her
Here we stand
You’ve got a pistol to your head
It won’t be easy
But I swear to you I meant the words I said
[Chorus]
We build it up and then it all falls down
I’ve come to find it’s just the way of the world
But I’m not gonna let you slip away
It’s not worth giving up the life you’ve made
This isn’t your escape
I’m not saying things’ll be the way they were back then
Just believe me when I say that it won’t always be this bad
Don’t tell me it’s far too gone
Don’t you tell me it’s been too long
I think it’s time to stand
[Chorus]
We build it up and then it all falls down
I’ve come to find it’s just the way of the world
But I’m not gonna let you slip away
It’s not worth giving up the life you’ve made
This isn’t your escape
[Chorus]
We build it up and then it all falls down
I’ve come to find it’s just the way of the world
But I’m not gonna let you slip away
It’s not worth giving up the life you’ve made
This isn’t your escape
