The World Goes On

See the gambler make a stand Holds a lifetime in his hand Win the game or lose control But the world goes on forever Life's a circle, I recall Shadows played upon the wall You pay the piper to call the tune And the song goes on forever And when all the words have gone There's the thought to carry on Just like a bird that sings Leave it all behind and spread your wings You can leave it all behind - spread your wings Lay me down Saw the road move on before me Times when I was tired and lost my way Looking at life and strangely for the first time Thinking that I could stay here But the world moves on forever And when all the words have gone There's the thought to carry on Just like a bird that sings Leave it all behind and spread your wings You can leave it all behind - spread your wings
