[Verse 1: Marla Hansen]
Did you hurt your hand again
Last night when you fell in the snow?

[Verse 2: Marla Hansen]
Shuffle shuffle shuffle shuffle
Shuffle your feet without looking down
You know how to place your feet
Carefully on the ground

[Chorus: Marla Hansen & Sufjan Stevens]
Lighten up
Lighten up
Lighten up
You say, lighten up
Lighten up

[Verse 3: Marla Hansen]
But here, it's dangerous, it's not like home
You never know what might be under the snow

[Chorus: Marla Hansen & Sufjan Stevens]
Lighten up
Lighten up
Lighten up
You say, lighten up
Lighten up
[Verse 4: Marla Hansen]
Tomorrow when we walk in the cold
Keep hold of your hand 'cause you know
I like it so when, if you push me down
I will try not to care about what might be under there

[Chorus: Marla Hansen & Sufjan Stevens]
Lighten up
Lighten up
Lighten up
You know, lighten up
Lighten up
