Steve ForbertMiscellaneousDon't StopSo you're down,So it's hard,Don't stop,Don't stop now.Stop an' you're negatingEv'rything that you've been waiting for so long;Stop an' you're denyingEv'rything that you've been trying for so long.So you're down,So it's hard,Don't stop,Don't stop now.What you gonna do whenYou're not in there tryin' t' do what you can do?I know you can do itIf you'll only just stick to it's up to you.There comes a time when things look so uncertain,Seems like fate just won't allowReason's rhyme, but you set sail for somethingAnd I'm on that dream boat now.So you're down,So it's hard,Don't stop,Don't stop now.Don't say you don't care aboutThe whereabouts of why it's not insane;Don't say it don't matter,Got to climb that broken ladder in the rain.In your eyes I look to find the personThat I've always found before,If she's gone, I just can't say for certainI belong here anymore.So you're down,So it's hard,Don't stop,Don't stop now.World don't owe you nothingAn' the world don't show you nothing but the door,But when you surrenderAll your hopes an' dreams will end there, that's for sure.So you're down,So it's hard,Don't stop,Don't stop.
