O.A.R. - Risen lyrics

Album: In Between Now & Then (2003)

I am not quite sure how I got here.
A minute passed & I am on my feet.
I never knew life could taste so good.
I need a little minute, just a moment to breathe.
No matter where I go, no matter who I see
Well I am reminded of my earlier days.
No matter where I roll, no matter what I know
Well I am reminded of my earlier ways.
But now I keep asking myself.

Wouldn´t it be the best damn day if we all took time to breathe?
Just one stolen paragraph in the book´s written history.
Don´t you sometimes wonder why people are afraid to smile?
Don´t look down we are going to come around & it always come to
back, crack of time eventually.
Just ascend with me.

I am not quite sure when I woke up.
The night flew by as I lay asleep.
Who ever knew that life could feel so good?
I need another minute.
Just a moment to breathe.
No matter where I go, no matter who I see
Well I am reminded of my earlier days.
No matter what I know, no matter where I roll
Well I am reminded of my earlier ways.
But now I keep asking myself.
Wouldn´t it be the best damn day if we all took time to breathe?
Just one stolen paragraph in the book´s written history.
Don´t you sometimes wonder why people are afraid to smile?
Don´t look down we are going to come around & it always come to back,
crack of time eventually.

Wouldn´t it be the best damn day?
Wouldn´t it be a wonderful day?
Wouldn´t it be a glorious day?
If we all took time to smile, made just a minute for you & me.
Wouldn´t it be the best damn day?
