Carry on lyrics
by Martha Wash



I stand alone in the eye of the storm
Crashes all around, tryin' to wear me down
But I hold tight to what I know is right

Still can hear the way mama used to say
Never, no, never let your spirit win
Never, never give in to the end, but carry on

When the valley is deep I'll be strong
With the mind he left to carry on
Never sleep 'till a new day dawns
I carry on

I'm gonna carry on
Yeaheaheaheaheah!

There's a new great moment tonight
Clear away the passed, honey, free at last
Yes, I've paid for the choices I made
No apologies from makin' your eye

Never, no, never lose my will
Never, never standing still
I carry on

When the valley is deep I'll be strong
With the mind he left to carry on, carry on
I won't sleep 'till a new day dawns
I carry on

(I carry on)

I stand alone in the eye of the storm
Crashes all around, tryin' to wear me down
But it's alright, I won't give up the fight
I said Lord, lift me up, let me light the fire

Never, nobody's gonna turn my fight
I won't stop, I will not be denied
I carry on

When the valley is deep I'll be strong, yeah
With the mind he left to carry on, carry on
I'll never sleep 'till a new day dawns
I carry on

I won't stop, no!

(Yes, I carry, carry on) I'm gonna carry on, yeah
(Yes, I carry, carry on) I feel half free now
(Yes, I carry, carry on) Don't worry and count on me

I said I never
Nobody's gonna turn my fight
I won't stop, I will not be denied
I carry on

When the valley is deep I'll be strong, yeah
With the mind he left to carry on, yeah
I'll never sleep 'till a new day dawns

When the valley is deep, just carry on
When the mountain's too high, you gotta carry on
I'll never stay, I carry on
'Till the new day dawns
