Nobody said it would be easy
Nobody said that life’s a breeze
Tossin’ and turning oh the wind keeps churnin’ like I’m
A little toy boat out on the sea

And If I’m down don’t count me out
I’ll slowly get back on my feet
Stumbling and fumbling but I keep on coming just as long
As you’re not giving up on me

And when I trip, fall
Slow down to a crawl
And feel like I got nothing left to lose
I may slip slide
And watch our worlds collide
But I will hit the ground running back to you

There are days my head is spinning
Wishing I could hit the switch and end this ride
If it came to a stop and someone let me off I know
I would just get right back in line

And when I trip, fall
Slow down to a crawl
And feel like I got nothing left to lose
I may slip slide
And watch our worlds collide
But I will hit the ground running back to you

What kind of love would say
I love you anyway
Time and time again

I hit the ground
Crashing down
Roll around, but I rebound
I get back up off the ground
Running, running back to you
I’m running back to you

Behind the Song:
"Originally written about how, as much as I try to mess things up, Christ does not give up on me. By the time we finished the song, I realized it applies to my relationship with my wife also. I keep screwing things up and she continues to love me. Here's a thought, worship God by dancing with your wife when you here this one. It’s impossible to not groove when you hear it." - MercyMe
