LATELY I’VE BEEN DOING WELL,
TRYING TO FIGHT BACK THE URGES,
‘COS GOD KNOWS ALL THE POWER LIES,
WITH THE MAN STANDING ON THE VERGE.
EVERYDAY WILL BE THAT CROSSING,
THE RIGHT DECISIONS MUST BE MADE,
‘COS YOU’LL EITHER HAVE LOST OR HAVE FOUND IN THE WORLD,
LESS YOU DON’T MIND WALKING A ROAD THAT LEADS NOWHERE.
CHORUS:
NO I’M NOT GONNA LOSE HOPE TODAY,
‘COS I’M ONE STEP CLOSER,
TO WHERE I WANT TO BE,
NO I’M NOT GONNA LOSE HOPE TODAY,
THOUGH IT’S EASY TO,
NOTHING GOOD COMES EASY ANYWAY.
WHEN THE ROAD GETS TOUGH AND TIRESOME,
AND EACH TURN REVEALS A MILLION K’S TO GO,
AND THE MOONLIGHT IS SHADOWED BY A THUNDEROUS CLOUD,
DON’T TURN BACK ‘COS IN A MOMENT,
YOU MIGHT BE SINGING IN THE RAIN,
RAIN!
WASH AWAY THE SORROW AND THE PAIN, YEAH!
I SAID RAIN, WASH AWAY EVERYTHING TODAY.
CHORUS (X2)
Lyrics: R. Eliot
