Don't Stop Lyrics - Steve Forbert

So you're down, 

So it's hard, 

Don't stop, 

Don't stop now. 

Stop an' you're negating 

Ev'rything that you've been waiting for so long; 

Stop an' you're denying 

Ev'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 when 

You're not in there tryin' t' do what you can do? 

I know you can do it 

If 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 allow 

Reason's rhyme, but you set sail for something 

And 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 about 

The 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 person 

That I've always found before, 

If she's gone, I just can't say for certain 

I belong here anymore. 

So you're down, 

So it's hard, 

Don't stop, 

Don't stop now. 

World don't owe you nothing 

An' the world don't show you nothing but the door, 

But when you surrender 

All 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.
