about
There are men and women whose lifestyles have included a component of regular exercise, whether it's weights, running, biking, hiking, swimming, martial arts, etc... As they get older this can become more difficult. And yet, with determination, they persist. This song, written and recorded in 2007, is for them.
lyrics
"Into the Night" by A. Chris Hvezda, copyright 2007, all rights reserved.
You know I can see the creases increase 'round my eyes
The pain in my joints, the thinning of hair on my head
My energy's low, at least not as high as a young man's
But onward I go, I will not lay down 'till I'm dead
I'll keep pressing up that bar
I'll keep running up that hill
I'll keep piling on those plates
Until my beating heart is still
I'll keep moving day and night
Tell myself that it's alright
You know I'm losing still I fight
Won't go gently into the night
I still can recall the days of my youth oh so clearly
It didn't last long, now it is gone, do you hear me?
My energy's low, at least not as high as a young man's
But onward I go thru the rain and the snow, though I'm weary
I'll keep sparring on that mat
I'll keep running on that mill
I'll keep piling on those plates
Until my beating heart is still
I'll keep praying day and night
Try to live within His sight
Seems I'm losing still I fight
Won't go gently into the night
Into the night . . .
I'll keep pressing up that bar
I'll keep running up that hill
I'll keep piling on those plates
Until my beating heart is still
I'll keep moving day and night
Tell myself that it's alright
I know I'm losing still I fight
Won't go gently into the night
