Lizz Wright – Salt lyrics

How can you lose your song when you have sung it for so long?
How can you forget your dance when that dance is all you ever had?
It must be true: you can't separate the two
It's impossible to do, just like the salt in the stew
It's all a part of you.

The thing that life cannot do, it can't take your song from you
So when life brings a chance for you to give your part away,
don't just stand there feeling scared
don't be afraid because there could be a treasure right there.

Now, listen to the truth
It doesn't matter what you do
Still gonna be you, just like the salt in the stew
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's all a part of you, 1 thing that life cannot do
can't take your song from you
Hey! oh, oh

Life can't take
you don't give it
No! It can't take your song from you
