Raise the Roof

Raise the roof, that I might see the stars to gain
Wisdom to see things for what they are
Please
I need proof

Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof

Trapped in the snare with too much dreaming to bear
Fearful and frantic, hopeless and a romantic
Inspired but tired, I run this wide-open course
Like the sagging spirit of an older horse

Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof

Peel back this backdrop, like the lids from my eyes
Put you in plain view, let me visualize
Touch me again in my dreams 'til I feel
Touch me again 'til I wake and it's real

Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof

The wisest advice to me that I didn't teach
Was to lock up the heart, but keep the key within reach
Touch me again in my dreams 'til I feel
Touch me again 'til I wake and it's real

Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof
Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Shut your mouth
Raise the roof

Dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Raise the roof
Whoa, dance 'til you fall, love 'til you die
Raise the roof
