Description
An evening with friends, glasses clinking, conversations flowing, but inside there is a heavy question mark: why isn't everything turning out the way I want it to? The music here doesn't pretend to know the answers - it just quietly reminds us that darkness is not eternal, that light follows it.
Like a gardener who stubbornly sticks seeds into the ground, even when the rain blows his hat off and his hands are already wet. Cry if you need to. Laugh if you can. And keep going anyway, even if you only have enough strength for ‘just a little more.’
This is not the soundtrack of victory, it is a reminder that the process itself is already movement.
Lyrics and translation
Original
Sitting down with friends whilst they cheer to the night
And you wondering why things haven't been going right
For I know right after the darkness comes the light
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Hold on
Life is life, it takes you anywhere it wants to
Keep your head down, you might just learn a thing or two
Open your eyes, there the garden lies
Stop fighting those tears, let them flow
Blowing in the wind there's an answer, so I'm told
Keep on keeping on
Hold on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Hold on (hold on)
Keep on keeping on
Hold on, oh
The cost isn't lost on me
And neither are you
The state that we're in
We gotta see it through
Between the heaven and the seven seas, as far as the eye can see
Keep wearing your heart on your sleeve
And I'll hang mine on an olive tree
Keep on keeping on
Hold on
And on, hm, mm
Keep on keeping on
Oh, hm, mm
Keep on keeping on
Hold on, yeah
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Hold on
And on and on and on
Hold on still
Hold on still
Hold on still
Hold on still
