LYRICS It’s hard to keep faith and focus when all the world around you’s spinning When you’re frightened of tomorrow and your life is just beginning It’s hard to keep on dancing when something rips away the floor It’s hard to find your path when something takes away the door But it’s not about the cards you’re dealt but how you choose to play them It’s not about the words we speak but how we will say them Not how much I can take but how much I’ve been given We’re all in the same boat, we all live under the same sun Remember the times we shared, my friends We’d sing like the songs would never end We’d dance and we’d never touch the floor We’d laugh ‘til we couldn’t laugh any more It’s hard to say how you feel when you just struggle to understand it It’s hard to pray when you can’t see how any God could plan this It’s hard to work when it seems that this study’s going nowhere It’s hard to know who to blame when everything’s so unfair But it’s not about the cards you’re dealt but how you choose to play them It’s not about the words we speak but how we will say them Not how much I can take but how much I’ve been given We’re all in the same boat, we all live under the same sun Remember the times we shared, my friends We’d sing like the songs would never end We’d dance and we’d never touch the floor We’d laugh ‘til we couldn’t laugh any more What doesn’t kill me makes me stronger And grief will fade but memories will last much longer I’ll count the minutes until I can see my friends ‘Til we meet again Believe it or not there’ll come a time when this is over And we can all rebuild our lives as we start over Use this time to be thankful for all you’re thankful for Use this time to love more than you’ve ever loved before You’ve loved before, you’ve loved before Remember the times we shared, my friends We’d sing like the songs would never end We’d dance and we’d never touch the floor ‘Cause love is all that life is for Music and lyrics (c) Andrew J.
