Gerry Rafferty - Life Goes On lyrics

rate me

You get a thunderbolt from out of the blue

And it changes everything about the life you knew

Yes the storm breaks and your heart aches

And then life goes on.

When a long time love just disappears

You need someone new to help you through those impatient years

And those sad days, all those mad days

While your life goes on.

You know it's over but you can't let go

It's not easy when it comes to saying all those last goodbyes

In that moment when your dreams lie scattered in the dust

You find something you can trust

Love comes to meet you like a brand new day

Love comes to you all along the way.

You're walking down the street but you're lost in space

And the future comes to meet you and you like its face

From a blue note comes a new note

And your life goes on.

You don't need miracles to point the way

When you know that love is still the reason to believe

In that moment when you know you might have given up

Someone fills your lovin' cup

And lies beside you ‘til the break of day

Love comes to you all along the way.

A million stars shine in the darkest night

From across the universe there comes eternal light

From this blue world to a new world

Somewhere life goes on.

Life goes on...

Life goes on...
