It s Not Over lyrics - Danny Gokey
It's not over
Till it's over
I stand and face the day
I rise and ride the wave
Half the battle's been won
Cause I believe it can be done
Oh, I believe
I might fall down but I get back up
I'm gonna pull my weight and I'll push my luck
I'm gonna stand and fight, and give it all I can
This is not the end
It's not over
Till it's over
It's not over
Till it's over
I can't change the past
But tomorrow is coming fast
I'm too close now to give in
I won't stop now until I win
For you I'm gonna win
I might be down, but don't count me out
It's not over till it's over
I might be down, but I'll turn it around
It's not over till it's over
Yeah, no, no, no, no, no
It's not over
Till it's over
It's not over
Till it's over
I might fall down, but I get back up
I'm gonna pull my weight and push my luck
I'm gonna stand and fight, and give it all I can
This is not the end
It's not over
Till it's over
It's not over
Till it's over
It's not over
It's not over
It's not over
Till it's over
Till it's over
Till it's over
My Best Days Are Ahead Of Me lyrics - Danny Gokey
Blowing out the candles on another birthday cake
Old enough to look back and laugh at my mistakes
Young enough to look at the future and like what I see
My best days are ahead of me
Life hasn't always been a party
But mostly it's been good
There's only one or two things
That I'd change if I could
I don't get lost in the past
Or get stuck in some sad memory, yeah
My best days are ahead of me
Age ain't nothing but a number
Sometimes I have to wonder what does it really mean
Hey, I'm still putting it together
I keep getting better, if I keep getting better
I can be whatever I wanna be
My best days are ahead of me
I've got sunsets to witness
Dreams to dance with
Beaches to walk on
And lovers to kiss
There's a whole lot of world out there
That I can't wait to see
My best days are ahead of me
My best days... are ahead of me
Like That's A Bad Thing lyrics - Danny Gokey
They say I drive real fast
Say I like to push the limit everyday I'm livin' like it was my last
They say I'm proud of my scars
Each ones got a story got guts and glory down to an art
Say I know what it's like to see life flash before my eyes
Like that's a bad thing
I don't know about you
But I was put here to live and love
So what if I don't do it like everybody else does
They say I'm out on the edge
I'm to willing to risk every bone every breath
They say all I am is a crazy dream
Like that's a bad thing
So my hearts been broke
So I keep on fallin it's nothin but all in when I let go
I wear it on my sleeve
They call me a fool
Cause I still believe
Like that's a bad thing
I don't know about you
But I was put here to live and love
So what if I don't do it like everybody else does
They say I'm out on the edge
I'm to willing to risk every bone every breath
They say all I am is a crazy dream
Like that's a bad thing
I don't know about you
But I was put here to live and love
So what if I don't do it like everybody else does
They say I'm out on the edge
I'm to willing to risk every bone every breath
They say all I am is a crazy dream
Is a crazy dream
Like that's a bad thing
Like that's a bad thing
I Still Believe lyrics - Danny Gokey
I've been looking for a light
At the end of this tunnel
I've been searching for a sign
To lead me home
Too many endless nights
Of sorrow
But on the other side of this
I know that my heart will live
I never saw a man that walked on the water
I never met a man that walked on the water
But I still believe
I don't really know what tomorrow will bring
But I'm open to all possibilities
'Cause I still believe
And the more I live my life
The lesser I question
All the things I just can't see
Right in front of my eyes
So I take that leap of faith
And learn a few lessons
Time showed me that
What you give is what you get
I never saw a man that walked on the water
I never met a man that walked on the water
But I still believe
I don't know the answer to my prayer
But I keep kneeling down like somebody is there
'Cause I still believe
(Now, listen)
Well, I guess I could give up
'Cause there are days I wanna run away
From everything
But what good would that do for me
'Cause I, I, I still believe
I never saw a man that walked on the water
I never met a man that walked on the water
But I still believe
I never saw a man that walked on the water
I never met a man that walked on the water
But I still believe
I don't really know what tomorrow will bring
But I'm open to all possibilities
'Cause I still believe
I never saw a man, never saw a man, never saw a man,
Who walked on the water
I never saw a man, never saw a man, never saw a man,
But I, but I, but I believe
But I, but I, but I believe
But I, but I, but I believe
Tiny Life lyrics - Danny Gokey
Looking down out of this little round window
On silver wings at 20,000 feet
With lakes and streams and fields of green
I tend to think the most peculiar things
Ribbons of highways, side roads and byways
People going all ways, always in a hurry
Gotta get there, but just where?
From up here, ?I'm not sure
Where it's all going or what it all means
But sometimes I think, it's just a simple thing
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Is love I have, and the love I have to give
Anything else there is - is insignificant
In this tiny life
Wheels hit the runways, Mondays run into Mondays
And some days are better than some days
Can't see the sky, skyscrapers too high
Thirty second daydream at another red light
I'm back in my hometown of roads that we rode down
Those sights and sounds are just yesterday's now
There's deadlines and stress lines and too much on my mind
I'm getting it all, but what's it all for?
Sometimes I think, it's just a simple thing
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Is love I have, and the love I have to give
'Cause anything else there is - is insignificant
In this tiny life
The love we make, the dreams we share
The friends
we have in our short time here
It's knowing God's grace, the touch of a hand
Holding a baby, calling mom and dad
It's making the most of the moments we have
And getting to live long enough to look back
On the years, the sweet tears of joy and laughter
It's all that really matters
Sometimes I think, it's just a simple thing
I close my eyes and I realize all I really need
Is love I have, and the love I have to give
Anything else there is - is insignificant
It doesn't matter, in this tiny life
Get Away lyrics - Danny Gokey
Well, I gotta get away
Just skip town with the top down
And drive all night
High time that I kick back and lose track
And get out of sight
Yeah, I'm caught in a state of emergency
I'm goin' down if I stay
Gotta get away
Feels like my head's in a vice
The big man standing there screamin'
This pressure, breakin' my mind
I'm done, I'm out, let me get back to
What this life is about
Well, I gotta get away
Just skip town with the top down
And drive all night
High time that I kick back and lose track
And get out of sight
Yeah, I'm caught in a state of emergency
I'm goin' down if I stay
Gotta get away
Yeah, gonna find me a sunset
And a cold drink on the beach somewhere
Get lost in a warm breeze with a sweet thing
Just get me there
I'm gone, no doubt
Gotta get back to
What this whole thing's about
Well, I gotta get away
Just skip town with the top down
And drive all night
High time that I kick back and lose track
And get out of sight
Yeah, I'm caught in a state of emergency
I'm goin' down if I stay
Gotta get away
Call me a missin' person
I really like the sound of that
Believe me I'm never comin' back
Oh, get away
Yeah, get away
Skip town, gonna drive all night
Kick back, and lose track, get outta sight
Yeah, I'm caught in a state of emergency
I'm goin' down if I stay
Well, I gotta get away
Just skip town with the top down
And drive all night
It's Only lyrics - Danny Gokey
It's been 18 months and 14 Days
Bobby can't get him a job
Repo man's gonna take his van I hear
Bobby's giving up on God
He needs a hand up and not a hand out
But hey, everybody's gotta suffer
Don't worry, don't worry
It's only my brother
Where is that poverty line
I've never really seen it
Look around I'm doing fine
I'm not really sure I believe it
On the other side of town schools are falling down
But me I'm riding in style
Don't worry, don't worry
It's only a child
There's a homeless woman with a shopping cart
Living on the street
Lord knows she can't come in here where the pretty people meet
We're all dressed in our Sunday best
And she smiles when she sees us
Don't worry
It's only Jesus
There's a face in the mirror
A man that I can be
Lord, won't you open my eyes
Won't you help me see
A hungry child needs more than a piece of bread
Brother needs a job to get ahead
And the homeless need a place to lay their head
And as much as I've been giving
I could never give enough
Don't worry
It's only love
It's only love, it's only love
We're gonna make it together
Walking hand in hand
Falling down to our knees
It's where we'll make our stand
You can never give it all away
You can never give enough
Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry,
It's only love
When you're lonely, cold and empty
Only one thing to fill you up
And it's only, and it's only, and it's only
It's only love
Life On Ya lyrics - Danny Gokey
Sunday morning, all dressed for church
Took my buddy, rode a shortcut
Showed up all covered in dirt
Daddy took one look
'Bout to blow his top
But grandma said, "It'll come out in the wash."
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain't always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya! On ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
About five years later
I can't remember her name
I never saw it coming
But man, I remember my first heartbreak
Grandma smiling
With that bit of a wrinkled face
Said, "You ain't seen nothing yet,
That girl was just a taste"
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain't always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya! On ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Yeah
Girl, do you remember?
When we first met
Life hadn't had a chance
to throw all it had at us yet
And that was ten years later
And you can do the math
But it all adds up to everything
That grandma said way back
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Gotta go a little further
Gotta get a little deeper
It gets a little sweeter
When you get a little on ya!
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Ain't always pretty,
Gonna get a little dirty
Gotta get a little life on ya!
On ya! On ya!
On ya!
Yeah, yeah
Gotta get a little life on ya!
Little life on ya, yeah
You got to live a little
Breathe harder
Love stronger, yeah
You got to live harder
Love stronger, yeah
Crazy Not To lyrics - Danny Gokey
Love, I don't think so
I'd have to be a fool to go down that road
Aw, but look at you, look at you, look at you
I'd be crazy not to
I know, it makes no sense
Why would I jump off a perfectly good cliff
Aw, but look at you, look at you, look at you
I'd be crazy not to
My best bet is turn around and run
And not get all caught up in your love
My friends say I'm crazy if I do
Aw, but look at you, look at you, look at you
Oh, I'd be crazy not to
My heart, is telling me stay
Like maybe I should take a chance and have faith
Aw, and look at you, look at you, look at you
Baby, I'd be crazy not to
My best bet is turn around and run
And not get all caught up in your love
My friends say I'm crazy if I do
Aw, but look at you, look at you, look at you
Oh, I'd be crazy not to, baby, I'd be crazy not to
I know if I kiss you
It's only gonna lead to
More and more, and more, and more
So my best bet is turn around and run
And not get all caught up in your love
My friends say I'm crazy if I do
Aw, but look at you, look at you, look at you
Yeah, look at you, look at you, look at you
I'd be crazy not to, crazy not to
Be Somebody lyrics - Danny Gokey
Joker Johnny was a lie teller
'Cause he thought somebody might like him better
So he built it up, built it up till it all fell down
But he never thought the bitter truth was gonna find him out
He did it all to impress someone else
But all he had to do was stop and be himself
Now everybody wants to be somebody
Yes, it's true
No tellin' what some people will do, oh
Nobody wants to be a nobody
'Cause it's a far more bitter fate
To go through this life
Carrying the weight
When they shoot somebody
For the clothes they wear
And they'll advertise it like it's ordinary
They got territories so they stand their ground
What they really know is what comes around
It comes right back around
What they really wanted
Is to be accepted
And find out in the end
That the streets are self-correcting
Everybody wants to be somebody
Yes, it's true
No tellin' what some people will do, oh
Nobody wants to be a nobody
'Cause it's a far more bitter fate
To go through this life
Carrying the weight
Far more worse than dying
Is living with a soul
That's laden with the consequence
Of all the happiness you stole
Sometimes a guilty conscience and carrying the weight
Is harder than a bullet to the brain
Yeah, yeah, yeah
C'mon oh, oh, oh, oh
Everybody wants to be somebody
Yes it's true
No tellin' what some people will do, oh
Nobody wants to be a nobody
'Cause it's a far more bitter fate
Yes, it is, yes, it is
Everybody wants to be somebody
Yes it's true
No tellin' what some people will do
Nobody wants to be a nobody
'Cause it's a far more bitter fate
To go through this life carrying
Never carrying the weight
Never carrying the weight
You gotta let it down, let it go
Listen to me as I say
Never carrying that weight
Never carrying that weight
You gotta let it go
Let it down
I Will Not Say Goodbye lyrics - Danny Gokey
Sometimes the road just ends
It changes everything you've been
And all that's left to be
Is empty, broken, lonely, hoping
I'm supposed to be strong
I'm supposed to find a way to carry on
And I don't wanna feel better
And I don't wanna not remember,
I will always see your face
In the shadows of this haunted place
I will laugh, I will cry, shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say goodbye
They keep saying time will heal
But the pain just gets more real
The sun comes up each day
Finds me waiting, fading, hating, praying,
If I can keep on holding on
Maybe I can keep my heart from knowing that you're gone
And I don't wanna feel better
I don't wanna not remember
I will always see your face
In the shadows of this haunted place
I will laugh, I will cry, shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say goodbye
I will curse, I will pray, I will re-live everyday
I will shoulder the blame
I'll shout out your name
I will laugh, I will cry, shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say
Will not say goodbye
I will not say goodbye
I will not say...
Second Hand Heart lyrics - Danny Gokey
I’m a little used up
A little tattered at the seams
But there’s still enough of me to be the man you need.
I’m not faultless, I guess
Got some scratches, got some dents
Yeah, I know I've got some scars on my innocence
I got a secondhand heart
Yeah, it’s a little banged up
But it’s still beating strong enough
To give a lot of good love
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
What a stupid thing to do
By throwing you away
If he don’t regret it yet, you know he will someday
Ooh, thank God he was blind
I thank God he let you down
For I never would have had the chance to build my world around
Your secondhand heart
Yeah, it’s a little banged up
But it’s still beating strong enough
To give a lot of good love
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
And you know I’ve been around the block a time or two
But every step I took was leading me to you
And your secondhand heart
Yeah, it’s a little banged up
But it’s still beating strong enough
To give a lot of good love
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
I’ll take my secondhand heart
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
A little tattered at the seams
But there’s still enough of me to be the man you need.
I’m not faultless, I guess
Got some scratches, got some dents
Yeah, I know I've got some scars on my innocence
I got a secondhand heart
Yeah, it’s a little banged up
But it’s still beating strong enough
To give a lot of good love
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
What a stupid thing to do
By throwing you away
If he don’t regret it yet, you know he will someday
Ooh, thank God he was blind
I thank God he let you down
For I never would have had the chance to build my world around
Your secondhand heart
Yeah, it’s a little banged up
But it’s still beating strong enough
To give a lot of good love
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
And you know I’ve been around the block a time or two
But every step I took was leading me to you
And your secondhand heart
Yeah, it’s a little banged up
But it’s still beating strong enough
To give a lot of good love
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
I’ll take my secondhand heart
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
Whoa-oh whoa-oh
So if you don’t mind
That it’s not brand new
I’ll take this secondhand heart
And give it to you
