Earth, Wind & Fire Lyrics - You Stood Up - V

When I was a kid I made a promise to myself 

To get me all the finer things in life 

I've been on a mission since the day that I was born 

But nothing comes without a sacrifice 

All that I could think of was how happy I would be 

When I got everything that I would do, yeah 

I got to where I wanted but finally I see 

The only thing I really want is you 

Earth, wind and fire 

It's bringing me down, you're my only desire 

Earth, wind and fire 

Only your love can take me higher 

I've been at the crossroads where you're gonna sell your soul 

I thought the deal was I would get it all 

I didn't see it coming I was moving way too fast 

That's what happens when you're on a roll 

I hope I'll be forgiven the mistakes that I have made 

But certain things can never be undone 

I don't know where I'm going or where I'm heading to 

All I know is where I'm coming from 

Now I will give it away 

If I could go back in time I'll make a change 

No classes to hide or pay (that line is so wrong, sorry ppl!) 

If only for a night 

If only for a day 

Earth, wind and fire 

It's bringing me down, you're my only desire 

Earth, wind and fire 

Only your love can take me higher 

If I can't have you then I don't want nothing at all 

I need you there to catch me if I should fall 

If I can't have you then I don't want nothing at all 

I need you there to catch me if I should fall 

Earth, wind and fire 

It's bringing me down, you're my only desire 

Earth, wind and fire 

Only your love can take me higher 

Yea-eh-yea... 

Earth, wind and fire 

It's bringing me down, you're my only desire 

Earth, wind and fire 

Only your love can take me higher
