Only the lonely know that hopeless place
When they’ve seen all their heroes fade away

Though nothing good ever in life lasts forever
I’ve learned to sip my moment like it was meant to be savored

Some say the whole earth is melting
And we’ll float away with no warning
And I say, we all need some help
But we first gotta learn to get rest

When it keeps me going
It keeps me going
Keeps me going
Yeah, it keeps me going
It keeps me going
Keeps me going

My mama said
That I should just have faith
Learn to forgive
And show a little grace

Though some people bite and they might not deserve it
I want you brave and honest, just like I taught
Cuz you promised

Some say God's just a myth
And there’s no use in believing
But she says,
There's nothing wrong with just a little hope when...
It keeps me going
It keeps me going
Keeps me going
Yeah, it keeps me going
It keeps me going
Keeps me going

Stay strong, my love,
Not long til we make it through this
No fear, my dear,
I am here, gonna make it through this

Cuz you keep me going
You keep me going
