Lyric discussion by Bob Stein 

Cover art for Lift Me Up lyrics by Bruce Springsteen

Played at the end of the movie Limbo, this song ads a beautiful melancholy depth to an already potent moment. I see no connection between song and movie meanings however.

To me the song calls for love in the immediate and the short term (fate the daylight brings, fingers on skin, this heartbeat, this breath), as opposed to tradition and the long term (rings of gold, sacred vow, secrets, chains).

Is the line in the chorus "I'll fall with you" or "I'll follow you"?
