Here to Stay

Juliette Aurora 1997 (USA)



Pumping is the blood in my veins;
Love in my life still remains;
I beat the odds and stood my ground;
Hope is what I have found;
I didn't let depression conquer my heart;
Happiness now plays a big part;
I've been through a lot, and I'm here to stay;
I'm not going to let the Devil have his way!
