You keep on moving

Your world as you know it
can suddenly change overnight 
So you rise the next day
to begin your fight

You keep on moving 
There really is no other way 

Your broken heart aches
a tired soul longs for rest 
But yet you give all you have left 
just to do your best

You keep on moving 
Hoping tomorrow is a brighter day 

You give it your all
even when you want to give up
Yet you constantly manage 
to pour from an empty cup 

You keep on moving 
I admire the fact you do it day after day

You will sometimes think
that's it ive had enough
Just you remember though
it won't always be this tough

You keep on moving 
Sending hope and strength directly your way
