Keep the Faith

Mother, mother - tell your children

that their time has just begone

I have suffered for my anger

there are wars that can't be won

Father, father please believe me

I am laying down my guns

I am broken like an arrow

Forgive me, forgive your wayward son

Everybody needs somebody to love (mother, mother)

everybody needs somebody to hate (please believe me)

everybody's ******** 'cause they can't get enough

and it's hard to hold on

when there's no one to lean on

[Chorus:]

Faith - You know you're gonna live thru the rain

lord, you got to keep the faith

faith - don't let your love turn to hate

right now we got to keep the faith

keep the faith, keep the faith

lord, we got to keep the faith

Tell me, baby, when I hurt you

do you keep it all inside

Do you tell me all's forgiven

or just hide behind your pride

Everybody needs somebody to love

Everybody needs somebody to hate

Everybody's bleeding 'cause they times are tough

Well it's hard to be strong

when there's no one to dream on

[Chorus:]

Faith - you know you're gonna live thru the rain

Lord, you got to keep the faith

Faith - now you know it's never too late

Right now you got to keep the faith

Faith - don't let your love turn to hate

Right now we got to keep the faith
