A Song

A friend of mine shared a song that she heard all the time when she was going through treatment for her cancer. I don't know about all of you, but this is the song that comes into my head every time I face a life crisis. It's called ... Here I Go Again by Whitesnake. It holds such meaning for me.

Here I Go Again lyrics
by Whitesnake

I don't know where I'm going, but I sure know where I've been (breast cancer)
Hanging on the promises in the songs of yesterday
And I've made up my mind (to fight like a girl)
I ain't wasting no more time
Here I go again, here I go again

Though I keep searching for an answer (will there ever be one?)
I never seem to find what I'm looking for
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on (FAITH)
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams (the dream of being FREE)

Here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known (road of hard knock)
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind (cuz I’m strong like that)
I ain't wasting no more time

I'm just another heart in need of rescue (how much can one person endure)
Waiting on love's sweet charity
And I'm gonna hold on for the rest of my days (that’s the plan)
'Cause I know what it means (sigh)
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time

But here I go again, here I go again
Here I go again, here I go

'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone (truly alone when no one seems to understand)

And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known (Murphy’s Law)
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone
'Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

And here I go again on my own
Going down the only road I've ever known
Like a drifter, I was born to walk alone

    Thanks for sharing! I LOVE
    Thanks for sharing! I LOVE this song, but I never listened to it in this context before. It fits!

    Two of my 'empowerment' songs now are "New Attitude" by Patti LaBelle, and "Feelin Stronger Everyday" by Chicago.

    Music to Inspire and Move You
    I have heard of the song. They play it on the radio here in SoCal from time to time.

    I have always been a fan of Earth, Wind, & Fire! Their music makes me want to move and lifts my spirit. My husband and I got to see them perform live at The Hollywood Bowl some years ago. They were FANTASTIC! I am also a fan of Adele. She is very young and talented. Her songs are also profound and moving.

    I have other favorites, too many to list. I can tell you like music. So do I!
    Hugs.
