He hasn't seen a drop of rain for months it seems
Rollin' river is nothing; but a tricklin' stream
The crops are dyin' in the harsh sun light
The dust on his tongue is dry
The fatted calf is down to skin and bones
We carry on
Alone in the city and she's only seventeen
The boy left her black and blue on the streets so mean
Just twelve weeks along and she's got a life inside
Said she's never ever felt so alone
She walks in the shelter, they say 'welcome home'
And we carry on

NEW SONG: Chris Lane - 'Big, Big Plans' (Video for Lauren) - LYRICS
When our lives come undone... we carry on
Cause there's promise in the morning sun... we carry on
As the dark surrenders to the dawn
We were born to overcome
We carry on
Beyond the picket fences and the oil wells
The happy endings and the fairy tales
Is the reality of shattered lives and broken dreams
We carry on
Carry on
It's the family that grieves for a lost loved one
It's the soldier who won't leave till the job is done
It's the addict trying to turn his life around
It's pickin' yourself up off the ground when you've been knocked down
We carry on
When our lives come undone... we carry on
Cause there's promise in the morning sun... we carry on
As the dark surrenders to the dawn
We were born to overcome
We carry on
When our lives come undone... we carry on
Cause there's promise in the morning sun... we carry on
As the dark surrenders to the dawn
We were born to overcome
We carry on
Carry on
We carry on
He stands in the field, cooled by the winds of change
She smiles as her baby moves and it starts to rain
