it's up to you

waiting for the phone to ring
you think the answer comes today
don't you see it's cheer or sting
but anything will make you sway
don't be too soft

you had a thought to carry through
a conversation took your attention
then what you needed to do
disappeared with a slight rejection
don't be so weak

dreams are meant to keep you alive
mom and dad's job was to help you stand
only your heart knows how to survive
you choose where your want to land
baby hear the voice

the wind's not gonna give you advice
the sand's not gonna keep you still
the clouds might rain over your house
just wait for the sun to come through
it's up to you

don't cry, that won't make it stop
the counting sheep every night
I can't tell you what to do
no one has walked in your shoes
it might not be okay

I won't tell you want you want
I can't help you open up
gotta do something you haven't done
go ride camels under the deserts sun
it's not always fun

the wind's not gonna give you advice
the sand's not gonna keep you still
the clouds might rain over your house
just wait for for the sun to come through
it's up to you
