|
A friend of mine just had a real bad time. |
|
You see, his life was shattered and he lost his mind. |
|
His girl ran off along with his best friend, |
|
And through emotional stress he brought his life to an end. |
|
It was such a tragedy, |
|
But that's the way it's got to be. |
|
Life goes on. |
|
Life goes on. |
|
It happens ev'ry day. |
|
So appreciate what you got |
|
Before it's taken away. |
|
Life will hit you |
|
When you're unprepared, |
|
So be grateful and take all |
|
That you can while you're there. |
|
Get that frown off your head, |
|
'Cause you're a long time dead. |
|
Life goes on and on and on. |
|
Life goes on and on and on. |
|
No use runnin' 'round lookin' scared, |
|
Life could get you when you're unaware. |
|
One day it's gonna come, so you better accept it. |
|
Life will hit you when you least expect it. |
|
And one day when you are gone, |
|
You know that life will still go on. |
|
But no one'll care if you've been good, bad, right or wrong. |
|
Life will still go on. |
|
My bank went broke and my well ran dry. |
|
It was almost enough to contemplate suicide. |
|
I turned on the gas, but I soon realized |
|
I hadn't settled my bill so they cut off my supply. |
|
No matter how I try, it seems I'm too young to die. |
|
Life goes on and on and on. |
|
Life goes on and on and on. |
|
Tornado, cyclone and hurricane |
|
Can batter the houses with the thunder and rain. |
|
Blizzards can blow; the waves hit the shore, |
|
But the people recover and come back for more. |
|
Somehow the people fight back, even the future looks black. |
|
Life goes on and on and on. |
|
Life goes on and on and on. |
