Down the path and up the street,
Lived a girl that talked to me,
Life was simple, life was sweet,
The time I felt the most complete.

Don't be waiting 'til it all comes back around,
When it's over you could find out how,
How life goes on,
Yeah, life goes on.

Lord knows I'll be gone for good,
To travel the world I thought I could,
And the faces change but it's all the same,
A familiar voice to call my name.

Don't be waiting 'til it all comes back around,
When it's over you could find out how,
How life goes on,
Yeah, life goes on,
Mmh, life goes on,
Yeah, life goes on.

Days they pass me by,
And the clock moves slowly,
I wonder if I try,
I could find the only,
Thing that's in my life,
That will bring me right back home,
Life goes on,
Yeah, life goes on,
Mmh, life goes on,
Yeah, life goes on.
