Too many miles behind me
Too many trials are through
Too many tears help me remember
There?s just too much to gain to lose.
Too many sunsets lie behind the mountain
Too many rivers my feet have walked through
Too many treasures are waiting over yonder
There?s just too much to gain to lose.
I?ve crossed the hot burning desert
Struggling the right road to choose
But somewhere up ahead, there?s cool, clear water
And defeat is one word I don?t use.
There?s just too much to gain to lose.
