But We All Get A Little Bit Crazy

This is a fun post.

One one our daughters is dealing with some adversity.  Nothing unusual or earth shattering, but a first time for her. Sometimes, life sucks.

She turns to daddy on a regular basis.

I comply… I advise… I do my fatherly job.

I love my job.

I thought of this song and sent her the link this morning as a bit of inspiration.  As I poked around, I found this first version with Kevin Cronin channeling Paul Stanley (or so it seems to me)

Then, fast forward thirty years or so, and they are still hitting it hard.  Gary’s gone, but whoever is playing his part is nailing it. Does it look like Kevin’s still having fun?   We should all be so lucky.

 

The Lyrics:

I used to be lonely till I learned about livin’ alone
I found other things to keep my mind on
And I’m gettin’ to know myself a little bit better
Whoa, I keep pushin’ on, I keep pushin’ on, yeah

Goin’ through all the changes I made so many mistakes, oh yes I did
Tryin’ to leave behind the heartaches
And sometimes I think I was a little bit crazy, oh yeah
Whoa, I keep pushin’ on

(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
Keep pushin’ on
(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
You know you have got to be so strong
(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
Well even if you think, your strength is gone
(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
Keep pushin’ on, yeah

Well it’s comin’ together I finally feel like a man, oh yes I do
I never thought that I’d be where I am, oh
Everyday I wake a little bit higher
Oh I keep pushin’ on, oh yeah

(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
Keep pushin’ on
(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
You know you have got to, got to, be so strong
(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
Well even if you think, your strength is gone
(Keep pushin’, keep pushin’)
Keep pushin’ on
