You Win Some, You Lose Some

I’ve got dreams in my head
That come to life every night
When I lay my head on that pillow
And shut my eyes tight.

In real life though,
I don’t always see
The results that seem so perfect
In my dreamland of make believe.

But when I’m feeling down and blue,
I remember these words my daddy told me,
He would always say, “Chin up little soldier,
Keep the faith and keep on diggin’.
You’ll win some, and you’ll lose some,
But nothing can take away
Your strong heart and iron will,
Yeah, you’ll win some, and you’ll lose some”.

I was always told to dream big,
And that’s exactly what I do,
And though some dreams have failed me,
I will keep dreamin’ ‘til I win them all.

But when I’m feeling down and blue,
I remember these words my daddy told me,
He would always say, “Chin up little soldier,
Keep the faith and keep on diggin’.
You’ll win some, and you’ll lose some,
But nothing can take away
Your strong heart and iron will,
Yeah, you’ll win some, and you’ll lose some”.

I’ve lost some along the way,
But I get back up and keep on going,
I will win it all in the end
Because nothing can take my fight away.

And when I’m feeling down and blue,
I remember these words my daddy told me,
He would always say, “Chin up little soldier,
Keep the faith and keep on diggin’.
You’ll win some, and you’ll lose some,
But nothing can take away
Your strong heart and iron will,
Yeah, you’ll win some, and you’ll lose some”.

Yeah, just like my daddy told me,
I’ll win some, and I’ll lose some.

Forever Doesn't Mean That Much

I’m searching for the answers,
Trying to find the road,
Anyway to get me out of this place,
Anything to beat the pain of this rat race.

Yeah, we thought we had it all,
But it all turned out to be a lie,
Forever doesn’t really mean that much
When that loving feel leaves your touch.

People come and go in your life,
Some stay forever, others just a short while,
But they all leave their mark within your pages,
Teaching you how to love better, baby.

It was fun while it lasted,
But in the end our love faded
Away.

Yeah, we thought we had it all,
But it all turned out to be a lie,
Forever doesn’t really mean that much
When that loving feel leaves your touch.

Yeah, it was a love that faded away,
Forever doesn’t mean that much,
That loving feel left your sweet touch.
