Everyone looks for their calling in love
But I always find it surprising
The way people say that they're falling in love
When I always felt I was rising
Floating right off of the ground and reaching
Something that I only have dreamed of
I'm not falling at all
I am rising in love

Everyone talks about tying the knot
But I have a hard time agreeing
With the way that we bind up the love that we've got
When the feeling of love should be freeing

Lifting each other up
Instead of giving one another a shove
We won't be falling at all
We'll be rising in love

How do you let love grow?
You've got to give it a chance when you've found it
A bird in your hand will stay until
You start to close your fingers around it

Love is the river who's waters we test
And a measure of where we are going
But you never can step in the same river twice
For the water is constantly flowing

But the deeper the river, the greater the trust
And the more that we're rising above
We won't be falling at all
We'll be rising in love

I'm not falling at all, I am rising
I'm not falling at all, I am rising
I'm not falling at all, I am rising
In love
