Lyrics

KEEP RUNNING (GET THERE)

VERSE 1
"better luck next time, little girl" they always say
I pack up my guitar, I smile and walk away
another day pickin' my heart up off the floor
But wipe the tears, and I knock on that next door

CHORUS
I'll keep running (keep running)
keep running (keep running)
I will run till the soles of my shoes are bare
gotta keep running (keep running)
keep running (keep running)
I'm not afraid of the fall because I've had my share
of heartache
but I'm going to get there

VERSE 2
nothing motivates like the sight of your last dime
but you pump it in your tank and you climb on and ride
and there's lovely comfort in the arms of 9 to 5
& I could hang my hat there but I'd shrivel up and die

CHORUS
So keep running (keep running)
keep running (keep running)
I will run till the soles of my shoes are bare
gotta keep running (keep running)
keep running (keep running)
I ain't afraid of the fall because I've had my share
of heartache
but I'm going to get there

BRIDGE
Ooooh living for the dance
Ooooh if you don't take your chances
and embrace your passion
you will die with dreams inside

CHORUS (alt)
So keep running (keep running)
keep running (keep running)
I will run till the soles of my shoes are bare
gotta keep running (keep running)
keep running (keep running)
I'm not afraid of the fall because I've had my share
I refuse to go down with regret in my air
there are riches awaiting for those who dare
I won't despair....no...
I'm going to get there
