Taking It All in Stride
Rainy days, rainy nights
Seems like it's been raining for a while
Wind is blowing, ground is frozen
I haven't seen a single soul smile
Empty house, cat calls
Lord this is a lonely time of year
Well I've lost you but I'm not through
And you won't see me shed a single tear
Chorus:
I'll be taking it all in stride
Ain't going to run, ain't going to hide
I've got too much to give inside to give up my loving
I will go up and I will go down
But somehow I'll always be around
There's too much out there to be found to give up my loving
Not long ago you let me know
I was all that mattered in your life
You drank a toast, you said you loved me the most
I wondered could this really be right
Time's changing and love is strange
And nothing ever really lasts for long
Well I lost you but I'm not through
I know it's always dark before the dawn
Chorus twice
