Turn You Away

[Verse 1]

Remember how we used to be

So happy, just naturally

Now you don't know me like I know you

This isn't what we had planned

Sticking our heads into the sand

You can't just sit there pretending to be

Unaware

[Chorus]

But you've gotta work harder before it's okay

You gotta get higher to make a new day

You gotta be a fighter before I let you stay

So I won't turn you away

[Verse 2]

You're frozen in our history

When you can make it new for me

You made it colder, my unarmed soldier

No one else can take the blame

Now we don't have to stay the same

The time we spent together, no one can take away

[Chorus]

But you've gotta work harder before it's okay

You gotta get higher to make a new day

You gotta be a fighter before I let you stay

So I won't turn you away

[Bridge]

Where can we go if we don't grow?

We won't get stronger

And though the river knows, see it flow

I can't wait any longer

[Chorus]

But you gotta get higher to make a new day

You gotta get closer before love fades

You gotta get stronger before it's okay

So I won't turn you away (Higher)

Oh (Higher)

Before our love fades

You gotta get stronger

So I won't turn you away
