Here I Go Again

Looking over my shoulder
It's a wonder I can laugh at all
When I get a better view of the shape I'm in
If I listen to the critics
The future is a lost cause
I might as well pack it up and cash it in

In the middle of the madness
A man gets tempted to negotiate
Strike a deal and sell his soul for the compromise
But then a voice, like a bell
Makes him turn and walk the other way
The lesson cuts like a knife, but the man survives

Call it an act of God's own mercy
Call it a case of more than the eye can see
Call it faith or just wishful thinking
But the darker it gets, the more that I believe
So here I go again
Here I go again

A wise man said most people die
With the music still inside of them
What a shame in a world so in need of a song
As long as my heart has a rhythm
You're gonna hear from me again, again
I got a melody or two before I'm gone

Call it an act of God's own mercy
Call it a case of more than the eye can see
Call it faith or just wishful thinking
But the darker it gets, the more that I believe
So here I go again
Here I go again and again

Call it an act of God's own mercy
Call it a case of more than the eye can see
Call it faith or just wishful thinking
But the darker it gets, the more that I believe

Call it an act of God's own mercy
Call it a case of more than the eye can see
Call it faith or just wishful thinking
But the darker it gets, the more that I believe
So here I go again
Here I go again
Here I go again
