Life Goes On

Whoa, whoa, yeah, oh yeah

 

Little birdie on my window pain

He flew away with no cares in the world

I wish that I could give him all my troubles

So he could take them far away, yeah

 

So many weights placed on my shoulders

And it's dragging me down, down,

Feels like one thing after another

Every time I turn around and I remember

That the sun comes up in the morning

And the moon brings light to the night

And the summer heat melts the snow away in time

For fireworks in July

Every ending has a beginning, every beginning has an end

Like a wave that's tossed in the ocean

Or a line that's drawn in the sand

 

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

 

I met a man the other day and he

Has some difficulties worse than me

I wonder how he could smile

Through it all

He said listen closely,

And this is what he told me:

 

There's a purpose for everything we go through

Just put the trust in the one who made you

And when you feel like giving up

Just think of the things you're living for

Cause the sun comes up in the morning

And the moon brings light to the night

And the summer heat melts the snow away in time

For fireworks in July

Every ending has a beginning, every beginning has an end

Like a wave that's tossed in the ocean

Or a line that's drawn in the sand

 

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

I remember that life, it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Life, it goes on, it goes, it goes on

 

But it gets hard sometimes, hard sometimes

No it ain't always easy, it ain't always easy, no

But I gotta learn to let it go, let it go, let it go

And it helps to know, it helps to know

That the sun comes up in the morning

And the moon brings light to the night

And the summer heat melts the snow away in time

For fireworks in July

Every ending has a beginning, every beginning has an end

Like a wave that's tossed in the ocean

Or a line that's drawn in the sand

 

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on

Yeah life it goes on, it goes on, it goes on.
