Words and music by bob seger |
|
When your baby up and leaves you |
|
Up and leaves you flat |
|
Don't you laugh my friend sometimes it happens just like that |
|
First you feel the anger then the sorrow will soon take control |
|
And there'll be hard times for sure |
|
Long cold lonely nights |
|
It might not sound like much |
|
But it'll mean a lot you'll see |
|
Every hour you survive will come to be |
|
A little victory |
|
Little victory |
|
As you struggle through each day |
|
Each strange new day |
|
Feelin' lost and wounded tryin' hard to find your way |
|
No one there to talk it out with |
|
Learnin' how to sleep alone |
|
Overcomin' each new doubt |
|
Tryin' hard just to accept it all |
|
Everytime you keep control when you're cut off at the knees |
|
Everytime you take a punch and still stand at ease |
|
Little victories |
|
Little victories |
|
And when night falls and there's no one around |
|
The cruelest time of all and not one sound |
|
Listenin' to the wind blow |
|
Listenin' to the tickin' of the clock |
|
Tryin' hard to forget |
|
Tryin' hard to just accept it all |
|
As you step out in the night take a lesson from the trees |
|
Watch the way they learn to bend with each breeze |
|
Little victories |
|
Everytime you make it through |
|
It's another little victory |
|
Day by day minute by minute |
|
Little victories |
