THE WALLFLOWERS - Too Late To Quit
Takes all my might
To find a hole that feels right
To bury myself
In a deep sleep at night
I hear a voice
Coming from the hillside
Says Ill show you the way
I will show you the light
But Im tired
Im tired
Im much too tired
Im tired
Hes says I know where you were headed
And youre half way there
But youve got to be careful
Youve got to beware
Some people want to hurt you
Some people dont care
Any more than you can bare
[chorus]
Theres nothing left here to rise above
Were not talking bout that kind of love
Youve got people here counting on you
Nows a good time
To learn how to pull through
Sometimes a good idea
Just isnt enough
Youve got to do the work
Now get your ass up
There isnt really such a thing as bad luck
Yeah, but once I shot an arrow
In the sky and it stuck
[chorus]
Youve got to keep movin
Youve got to keep pushin
Youre never gonna get back
Anymore than youre givin
Life is for the living
Youve got to be willin
A song aint a song
Until someone starts singin
[chorus]
