Barry Manilow - It'S A Long Way Up lyrics

Once you find what matters in your life

Keep on pushing through the darkness

Till you see the light

You're gonna find it

You're no longer behind it

Once you learn what you've been doin' wrong

You can make the change

You need to make to carry on

Now and forever

The sooner the better, just remember now . . .

It's a long way up

When you're coming from nowhere

It's a long way up

When you're coming from nowhere

You gotta fight a little harder

You gotta push a little more

You gotta gamble everything you got

To get you through the door

'Cause it's a long way up

You've been down before but that's okay

You can rest assured

That every dog will have his day

And life is a jungle

But you ain't gonna crumble, remember now . . .

It's a long way up

When you're coming from nowhere

It's a long way up

When you're coming from nowhere

You gotta fight a little harder

You gotta push a little more

You gotta gamble everything you got

To get you through the door

'Cause it's a long way up

Don't give up the dream

Hey don't you know it's dark before the dawn

When you think you just can't take it

That's when you'll make it
