I got an extra, glimpse of the truth today
Staring at my breakfast, when I thought I heard it say
Fighting is no good, success an empty lie
The treasure hunt is lonely until you realise
We came to take it up,
We came to take it up
We came to take it up
We came to raise it up,
We came to take it up
We came to move it up
I promise you, Miss, I will do my best today
But somebody keeps tryin to make me, tryin to make me lose my way
But I believe, oh my darling, I believe in you
And I hope when you hear this you'll remember what we were sent to do
We came to take it up,
We came to take it up
We came to take it up
We came to move it up,
We came to raise it up
We came to praise it up
I came to take you up,
You came to take me up
We came to take us up

Take me up, take me up

La la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la
Speeding out of the town I thought I'd lost my way
Til I saw the green and ebony come a-wonderin about their pay
I got the money if you still got the friends
We can really put this world to right or sit and watch the end
Were gonna take it up,
We ...
We came to move it up
Were gonna take it up,
We ...
We came to take it up
To the very very top,
To the very very top
To the very very very very very very top
To the very very top,
To the very very top
To the very very top
