[Verse 1] The clock on the kitchen wall keeps losing time But I lace up my shoes and step outside Every hard little truth has a place in the day Still I carry my breath and I walk anyway [Pre-Chorus] If the road bends back, I’ll learn the turn If the first spark fades, I’ll make it burn [Chorus] Keep tryin’ me, I’m not done yet Just hold on, don’t fold to regret One more mile, one more open door We’ve been knocked down, but we’re built for more Keep tryin’ me, let the whole world see Just hold on, stay here with me [Verse 2] There’s a note from last winter tucked under a plate Says, “You made it this far, so don’t call it fate” I can hear your tired laugh through the hallway wall Two brave hearts don’t have to be fearless at all [Pre-Chorus] When the doubt comes loud, we’ll answer low With the little bit left, we’ll let it grow [Chorus] Keep tryin’ me, I’m not done yet Just hold on, don’t fold to regret One more mile, one more open door We’ve been knocked down, but we’re built for more Keep tryin’ me, let the whole world see Just hold on, stay here with me [Bridge] No perfect morning, no promise made Just hands held tight when the light turns gray If you lose your strength, I’ll lend you mine We’ll find the next step one at a time [Final Chorus] Keep tryin’ me, I’m not done yet Just hold on, don’t fold to regret One more mile, one more open door We’ve been knocked down, but we’re built for more Keep tryin’ me, let the whole world see Just hold on, stay here with me Keep tryin’ me, through the ache and doubt Just hold on, we’ll work it out [Outro] One more step, one more day Hold on, hold on, don’t fade away
