Words and music by John Kay and Rocket Ritchotte
|
|
Running like bandits through the blinding dark of night
|
There's nothing in sight
|
Suddenly someone shines a guiding light
|
Things start lookin' all right
|
Clutching the promise of a bright and better dawn
|
You wait for the sun
|
Oh, you can bury a man when all his dreams are gone
|
So you just keep holding on
|
|
And here's to the lost and lonely dreamers
|
Struggling to survive
|
Here's to the true and daily heroes
|
Keeping our dreams alive
|
|
Watching the news you took a bruising body blow
|
Your guts screaming foul
|
Madness and mayhem got you on the ropes
|
Somebody throw in the towel
|
Just when you feel like going down to end the bout
|
To stop all this pain
|
Somebody somewhere shows a ray of hope
|
And you start punching again
|
|
And here's to the lost and lonely dreamers
|
Struggling to survive
|
Here's to the true and daily heroes
|
Keeping our dreams alive
|
Here's to the young and old crusaders
|
Battling side by side
|
Here's to the laughing bright-eyed children
|
Keeping our hopes alive
