All That Keeps You Going

When the princes and peasants

Each look back at you the same

When a friend that you've known before

Can't quite recall your name

When each morning there's a cloudy sky

That keeps the sun from showing

Then you'll know you are your own

Sometimes that's all that keeps you going

'Neath the chimneys and the rooftops

Of the village safe and sound

No one sees the faces or hears the feet

That walk the morning ground

And the stillness of the alleys

And the highways keeps a-growing

So you say you are your own

And that alone will keep you going

Through the dampness of the dawn

Down by the road you walk alone

And you think on the days when you had laughed

Or all the love you've known

But your head is now avoiding thoughts

Of times you'll soon be knowing

When to say you are are your own

Ain't quite enough to keep you going

When the princes and peasants

Each look back at you the same

When a friend that you've known before

Can't quite recall your name

When each morning there's a cloudy sky

That keeps the sun from showing

And you know you are your own

Sometimes that's all that keeps you going

And you know you are your own

Sometimes that's all that keeps you going
