I keep on losing And I lost so much (Now I'm) steady musing I need some crutch I keep on crying But I know my luck Bewaring me From giving up I started giving And I've given so much To the living Even more that I've got Give me strength Don't drag me down Don't take away The ones I love I keep on learning And I learned so much I'm really yearning For the ones I love Keep getting older Be grey by light I carry a load on my shoulders But I'll be wise at night Now my teachers are dying They've been giving so much To the living Even more that they've got Give me strength Don't drag me down Don't take away The ones that I love Help me to Tough this out And work out What this is all about
