All Up To You Lyrics - Soundtrack Exclusives & Rarities - Blues Traveler

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
