05. You Can Still Walk Tall

Return To Paradise
by Randy Stonehill



 

Yeah,
Yeah.

I know you're hurting - baby, what can I say?
Can the pot say to the potter, "Why did you make me this way?"
And when the pain drives you down to your knees and you cry out for help in the darkness, that's the safest place you can be.

Hey, baby,
Baby, you could still walk tall,
You just move a little slower now, that's all,
Slow enough to notice the beautiful and small,
Baby, you can't run anymore, but you can still walk tall.

The doctors say there's nothing more they can do,
Yeah, but just 'cause they're closing the book, that don't mean the story is through,
A wise man once told me, "When your road's at an end you just hang onto hope anyway, and that's where a new road begins."

Hey, baby,
Baby, you can still walk tall,
You just move a little slower now, that's all,
Slow enough to notice the beautiful and small,
Baby, you can't run anymore, but you can still walk tall.

I don't believe this life is for nothing, and not a moment escapes the good Lord's eyes,
This world tries to tell you there's no answer, but if true love is real that must be a lie,
That must be a lie.

I am your friend, I know that's understood,
And if we could trade places right now, baby, you know that I would,
Life can be hard and the future's unknown, but our saving grace is the promise we don't have to face it alone.

Hey, baby,
Baby, you could still walk tall,
You just move a little slower now, that's all,
And in your humbled silence you'll hear your Father call,
Baby, you can't run anymore, but you'll dance again someday for sure,
Baby, you can't run anymore, but you can still walk tall,
You can still walk tall, you could still walk tall.

Baby, you could still walk tall.
