It was an early autumn night
I was driving in my car
My eyes were all wrung dry
By the thin yellow line
Coming up
From the middle of the road
You were on my mind
Life was kicking my behind
Every moment I'd try
To be a better man
But it just wasn't working
So you said:
“Good bye
See ya on the other side”
Well I didn't know then
Like I know right now
How it all takes time
Dealing with things
Moving through emotions
Till we learn our lesson
Or die trying to define
What's wrong inside
Oh baby
I needed you then.
Don't give in
Go on
Even if it hurts so bad
Don't give up
Move on
Life is a lesson
Learn from it
Or lose everything
Even though it feels so wrong
Go on
Don't let today's troubles
Make you want to end it all
My friend
I got your back
Begin again
Stand up
Be whole
Go on.
Four years gone by
Summer time
I've seen a whole lot of miles
Pass me by
But that thin yellow line
Keeps me on the road
Though some days
I still don't know
If I can make it alone
But there is still hope
I don't need that bottle to know
Courage comes from my soul
And every day is a choice
To go on
Let go
Give up
Don't try again
But you know
We always have choices
Be free
Let those chains fall away.
Don't give in
Go on
Even if it hurts so bad
Don't give up
Move on
Life is a lesson
Learn from it
Or lose everything
Even though it feels so wrong
Go on
Don't let today's troubles
Make you want to end it all
My friend
I got your back
Begin again
Stand up
Be whole
Go on.
And so one last time
Open road ahead
I'm not getting any younger
But I feel just fine
And there you are
As clear as the moon
Shining above
Yeah,
I'm still moving on
Holding still
Rock steady
Here we go!
