Stay The Course

Verse 1:
Greet the sunrise, bright new day
Feels like nothing's in your way
Afternoon it's not so clear
You've lost the sense there's naught to fear
Evening comes, and no surprise
You wish you'd never op'ned your eyes
And as you settle down to sleep
You find you're fighting not to weep

Refrain:
Stay the course, just let it flow
Stay the course, and take it slow
Don't fight the storm, just let it blow
Don't let the chaos lay you low
Just hold on, stay the course

Verse 2:
When every day's the same it seems
Don't cut yourself on shattered dreams
Just grit your teeth and walk right through
The bed of coals awaiting you
And though it may take years to pass
Your peace will find you at the last
And those who fought on by your side
Will look to you, pride in their eyes

Refrain:
Stay the course, just let it flow
Stay the course, and take it slow
Don't fight the storm, just let it blow
Don't let the chaos lay you low
Just hold on, stay the course
