[Verse 1]
Rainy days, rainy nights
Seems like it's been rainin' for a while
Wind is blowin', ground is frozen
I haven't seen a single soul smile

[Verse 2]
Empty halls, catcalls
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 will be takin' it all in stride
Ain't gonna run, ain't gonna hide
I've got too much to give inside
To give up on lovin'
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 on lovin'

[Verse 3]
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
Wondered will this really be right
[Verse 4]
But time's changin', love is strange
Nothin' ever really lasts for long
Though I lost you but I'm not through
I know it's always dark before the dawn

[Chorus]
I will be takin' it all in stride
Ain't gonna run, ain't gonna hide
I've got too much to give inside
To give up on lovin'
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 on lovin'

[Chorus]
I will be takin' it all in stride
Ain't gonna run, ain't gonna hide
I've got too much to give inside
To give up on lovin'
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 on lovin'
