First song of the new year, a song about hope in difficult times. Has (imho) a nice build so hang in there, the climax is coming
@MonnoDB was (as always) a great help when writing the lyrics.
All and any input welcome, I will most likely go back and tweak this once I get some distance to it.t
It crept up upon us
Like mist in the night
Present but nothing to fear
But slowly the danger
It really took hold
And the ship became harder to steer
Batten the hatches
Hold lovers close
The path will get rougher
More souls will be lost
Where there's a will
there is a way
Where there’s hope
still at play
We know that each and every night
Brings a new and brighter day
Where there’s a will
There’s a way
To find the strength to carry on
Until this burden is lifted
We need to stay strong
Look left and look right
There is nothing in sight
That serves as a shelter from harm
We try hard to mask
The damage that we’re tasked with
To shield from, to limit, to calm
Close all the doors
The windows and more
You can’t see the threat
So assume you’re at war
Where there's a will
there is a way
Where there’s hope
still at play
We know that each and every night
Brings a new and brighter day
Where there’s a will
There’s a way
To find the strength to carry on
Until this burden is lifted
We need to stay strong
Stay calm
Carry on
Together we’ll weather
The storm, it will pass
Hang on
Stand fast
The sun, it will rise
The night will not last
Where there's a will
there is a way
Where there’s hope
still at play
We know that each and every night
Brings a new and brighter day
Where there’s a will
There’s a way
To find the strength to carry on
Until this burden is lifted
We need to stay strong
