TOGETHER Lyrics
For King and Country, Tori Kelly & Kirk Franklin
This is for the busted heart
This is for the question marks
This is for the outcast soul
Lost control, no one knows
Sing it for the can’t-go-back
Sing it for the broken past
Sing it for the just found out
Life is now upside down
If you’re lookin’ for hope tonight, raise your hand
If you feelin’ alone and don’t understand
If you’re fightin’ in the fight of your life, then stand
We’re gonna make it through this hand-in-hand
And if we fall
We will fall together
Together
This is for the second chance
This is for the new romance
Sing it for the loved in vain
Overcame, it’s not too late
If you’re lookin’ for hope tonight, raise your hand
If you feelin’ alone and don’t understand
If you’re fightin’ in the fight of your life, then stand
We’re gonna make it through this hand-in-hand
And if we fall
We will fall together
Together (together, together)
Oh, and when we rise
We will rise together
Together, ooh
We will rise together, ooh
Listen
If you’re lookin’ for hope tonight (and you’re all alone)
If you’re feelin’ alone tonight (can you feel?)
If you’re in the fight of your life (I can promise)
We’re gonna make it happen, yeah
I will be by your side (by your side)
‘Cause love is in the air tonight (can you feel it?)
All up and see the light (come on!)
Whenever, ever, ever
Just as long as we’re together, say
If we fall (fall), we will fall together
Ha ha, I got you, my brother
Together (together)
I see you my sister
And when we rise, we will rise together
Together (oh)
If we fall (if we fall), we will fall together
Take my hand (together)
Come and stand
When we rise (when we rise)
We will rise together (we will rise together)
Together (that’s right!)
Together we are dangerous
Together with our differences
Together we are bolder, braver, stronger
