From the recording Junior
Lyrics
Well it’s a long broken road to where I’m headed, but it’s a long broken road from where I’ve been.
I’m older now and tired of the heartache, from fighting battles, I never seem to win.
Looking back it’s a wonder how I made it, I should’ve broke a long damn time ago.
But you always found a way to keep me going, even when there’s nowhere left to go.
You’d say, we can cry, we can cry, we can lay down and die, wait until tomorrow, let today pass on by.
Or we can try, we can try, with one step at a time, and see how far we make it, with me by your side.
When my fire burns low, honey you keep it lit.
You won’t let me give up, no you won’t let me quit.
When I’m all out of hope, only you give me it.
You won’t let me give up, no you won’t let me quit.
Well it’s a long broken drive down that old highway, but it’s a long broken ride we got to see.
Such a pretty ride I nearly missed it, the person sitting right here next to me.
I always knew you’d be somebody baby, there never was a goal you can’t achieve.
Well I meant every word the day I said it, all you had to do is just believe.
We can cry, we can cry, we can lay down and die, wait until tomorrow, let today pass on by.
Or we can try, we can try, with one step at a time, and see how far we make it, with me by your side.
When my fire burns low, honey you keep it lit.
You won’t let me give up, no you won’t let me quit.
When I’m all out of hope, only you give me it.
You won’t let me give up, no you won’t let me quit. <woo!>
Yeah, when I’m all out of hope, only you give me it.
You won’t let me give up, no you won’t let me quit.
You won’t let me give up, you won’t let me quit.
You won’t let me give up, no you won’t let me quit.
