How Do You Do Lyrics

(Chorus)
How do you do it?
You make me want to live again
How do you do it?
You make me want to live again

When you wake me in the morning
That is my favourite thing
The party is so warming
As a strikes a chord upon my skin

Now you sing in the evening
With the voice that's bouncing like a spring
A heart is not for breaking
It's for beating out all the life it needs to begin
It's for beating out all the life it needs to begin

How do you do it?
You make me want to live again
How do you do it?
You make me want to live again

Have we taken all we're good for?
Have we registered our love in vain
A church is not for praying
It's for celebrating the light that bleeds through the pain
It's for celebrating the light that shines through your veins

How do you do it?
You make me want to live again
How do you do it?
You make me want to live again

If you won't answer ..........?

It sounds like he says "hearts" in that very last sentence, but I can't quite figure it out!! sigh

I also think it's "celebrating the LIGHT" not life.

Nitpicking over the lyrics aside, I reallllly like this song :)

I'm not religious, but I can see how one might think it's a song about God (considering the reference to churches and celebrating life etc) but I don't see it like that personally. It's more of a love song to me, than a song about God. :)

I think the third lyric is "Your body is so warming".

I think I also stand corrected on the ending lyrics. I just listened to them sing live, and he sort of goes: "If you won't answer you sure ou-ou-ou-ours, if you won't answer you sure are ours!" That's why it was confusing to me!
