Blues Traveler - All Up To You lyrics

Well, it seems no one can protect you

And your friends just don't understand

When your hopes and your courage neglect you

And no arm long enough to lend a hand

When your road seems like any other

Cold and dry, wonder why

You've just gotta believe one way or another

It's just gotta be worth one more try

And though the world is spitting venom

And there ain't nothing nobody else can do

Simply remember that it's all

All up to you

When your heart's been crushed like a baby

When the one you love is walking away

What's left of you is thinking how just maybe

You might find that's that special something left to say

And that cruel, cruel heaven above you

Let it be soft, just let her go, let her go

Facing it, she just doesn't love you

I know it hurts, Lord I know

And though without her, it seems you've got nothing

No matter all the heavy heartache you've been through

Truth of the matter, though it's hard to swallow

It's still all up to you

Up to you

I know sometimes the answer ain't easy

Sometimes it's hard enough to carry on

But I know somewhere, somebody needs me

If the entire loving universe was gone

All that I'm saying is that pain comes from you

From deep inside, don't run and hide

Unto thine own self you must be true

If you've ever laughed or ever cried

Now you could say I've had one too many

You could say I've had one too few

Either way, you know it's okay

I'd live on to fight just one more day

Call it a matter of foolish pride

But at least I could say that at least I tried

Once and forever, it's still all up to you
