Christopher Cross Still I Resist song lyrics
Daybreak
A lovely morning
A chance for heaven
Like the dawn of time
But no
When my eyes open
I see a mountain
I see a long uphill climb
And even though I know
It all begins by letting go
Still I resist
Still I resist
Must be crazy
Think Im Joe Frazier
Fighting each moment
As if I could win
Big surprise
Where does it get me
Same old frustration
Same old place Ive always been
In books of truth I read
What life brings is what I need
Still I resist
Still I resist
Ooh what Ive missed
The wind moves
The night air
The leaves fall
They dont care why
I feel that
I get it
So why dont
I let it fly - fly
But me
I got opinions
I got to nail it
Nail it all down
Its no good
Its like nailing down water
Life is a liquid
Rolling through town
Through town
Im just a frightened boy
And when its time to take my joy
Still I resist
Still I resist
Ooh what Ive missed
The wind moves
The night air
The leaves fall
They dont care why
But I care why
I care
I know that
I get it
Its so hard
To let it fly
And let it go by
Yeah me
And all those brilliant opinions
Always having to nail it
Nail every damn thing down
Its no good
Wanna put down this hammer
Love is a liquid
And I wanna drown
Ooh please
Let me exhale now
And if I fail now
At least Ill know I tried
I tried
I tried
