Are you cryin tonight?
Are you feelin all right?
I told the world that you were down on your luck
You were one of a kind
One who'd never give in
Even when they put a price on your head
Has anyone heard the tales you tell
Or seen the scars you wear
Did anyone speak up when you fell
Does anybody care
Rise again little fighter
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again little fighter
And dont let 'em end the things you do
Related
And you were one with a cause
And a reason to be
You were a fighter for peace on this earth
And you were never afraid
You put your life on the line
And you were always alone out on the sea
Without a weapon in your hand
You came to fight a war
They took your life but didn't know
That you would never die
Rise again little fighter
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again little fighter
And don't 'em end things you do
Are you feelin alright?
Cause I care, care
Run along little fighter
Oh cause I was there beside you
Never stop believing, so rise
Rise
RISE!
Rise again little fighter
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again little fighter
And don't 'em end things you do
Rise again little fighter (Don't stop believing)
And let the world know the reason why
Shine again little fighter (And keep on moving)
And don't 'em end things you do
Yeah, don't let 'em ever end the things you do
