It Goes On

When your heart's on the edge Barely hanging on like a midnight cigarette When the nights don't seem to end And that lonely wind is singing you to sleep once again I won't make a promise I can't keep Like a river flows to the ocean deep It goes on and on Bound to forever Even when we're gone It goes on and on We'll be together at the rising of the dawn It goes on When your mind's on the loose Slowly wearing out like a faded old tattoo When the days all look the same When that lonely wind keeps singing only you can ease the pain That's the kind of bond that you can't break Like looking up at all the stars in space It goes on and on Bound to forever Even when we're gone It goes on and on We'll be together at the rising of the dawn It goes on Digging through the sands of time to find my way back home Your memory's the thing that keeps me hanging on To know I'm not alone, we're stronger than the bonds of blood Even on the darkest days together through the valley of the gun It goes on and on Bound to forever Even when we're gone It goes on and on and on We'll be together at the rising of the dawn We'll be together at the rising of the dawn
