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

*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

*Repeat twice
