Lyrics
Tinman
Got to keep rolling.
Got to keep moving.
Got to keep growing.
Though I cannot buy all I?ve been sold
(Believe the half of all I'm told)
I must carry on ...
I must carry on ...
When I'm standing
at the threshold
Of the doorway to the dawn,
When no one else is listening
Or even (ever) hears my song,
May I have the grace
and courage
To bring my heart along ... and carry on.
Got to keep turning.
Got to keep dealing.
Got to keep learning.
Though I can't deny
I've lost my way
(Believed a lie,
or gone astray)
I must carry on ...
I must carry on ...
