Upstream

from The Snow Ballad by Ali George

/

lyrics

You’re a funny kind of girl,
One of the strangest in my world.
You’ve got the soul of a sleeping cat,
And the mind of a hanging bat.

You’ve got the will of a river fish
That swims against the flow.
I know you’re gonna push on
(And up the stream you go).

When I’m feeling out of sorts,
And my poor old belly hurts,
You bring me cups of tea.
You give your love to me.

I hope I always make you feel
The way you make me feel.
You really make me glow
(And up the stream you go).

You’ve got a lot of things to say.
I could listen to you all day.
You’re the purist thing I know.
You’ve got skin as white as snow.

You’ve got the will of a river fish
That swims against the flow.
I know you’re gonna push on
(And up the stream you go).

I hope I always make you feel
The way you make me feel.
You really make me glow
(And up the stream you go).
