about

A song about keeping faith in life when times get rough

lyrics

You win and lose, you try to stand tall
The pillars you knew might stumble and fall
It kicks you around, through an endless night
But it might be the best year of your life

Times were good, you painted every town
The sun came up and it never went down
But now it’s dim where it used to be bright
Still this could be the best year of your life

Tides turn, bridges burn, vows to keep
Hearts ache, mountains break, love grows deep

The songs you love will never die
Like the summer sun or the moonlit sky
And when it seems that nothing’s right
Still this could be the best year of your life

Lives end, bruises mend, hands to hold
No doubt, no way out, gospels told

Tides turn, bridges burn, vows to keep
Hearts ache, mountains break, love grows deep

Lives end, bruises mend, hands to hold
No doubt, no way out, gospels told
