Music is Medicine for the Heart and Soul

Don't Lose Heart

by: Dan Fogelberg

This life is heartless and it's rarely just
Full of sad betrayals and misplaced trust
And it can suck your spirit as dry as the dust
and steal your soul if you let it.
Oh, every life contains it's sorrow and pains
It's stormy weather and it's rough terrains
You watch me wrestle with my length of chain
And smile so bravely as you tell me.

Don't lose heart,
Don't lose heart,
Though it feels like yours will fall apart
Just remember when the road gets dark
I will always be beside you.

I've spent my life pursuing fortune and fame
Chasing rainbows in a shadow game
And I'm not sure what I've lost is worth the gain
Or why my soul remains so restless.

You've seen me stumble, Lord, you've seen me fall.
You've shared my triumphs and you've seen me crawl..
And when I think that I could lose it all
You give me courage and you tell me.

Don't lose heart,
Don't lose heart
Though it feels like yours will fall apart
Just remember when the road gets dark,
I will always be beside you....
