I´m Pulling Through - Billie Holiday, Roy Eldridge

I’m pulling through and it’s because of you

When I was stranded came your helping hand

Lonely, hurt I had not known which way to turn

'Til you said, «Try smiles, not tears, just laugh and learn»

I’m pulling trough and it’s because of you

You made me see how lovely life could be Lifted up my heart and made me count the cost

To find I’d gained, not lost

When I thought that hope was really gone

You showed me I was wrong

And you taught me how to carry on Thanks for the lift in time and thanks for your song

I’m pulling trough and it’s because of you

I’d do the same for you if your turn came

Hope it never will

For I’ve been though the mill

I won’t get this debt

I’m pulling trough

When I thought that hope was really gone

You showed me I was wrong

And you taught me how to carry on Thanks for the lift in time and thanks for your song

I’m pulling trough and it’s because of you

I’d do the same for you if your turn came

Hope it never will

For I’ve been though the mill

I won’t get this debt

I’m pulling trough
