Bilingual
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
Then 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 every day
So appreciate what you've got before it's taken away
Life will hit you when you aren't prepared
So be grateful to take all that you can while you're there
Get that thought out of your head 'cause you're a lot on deck
Life goes on and on and on
Life goes on and on and on
Yeah
No use running off looking scared
'Cause life will 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
No one will care if you've been good, bad, right or wrong
Life will still go on, yeah
ย
Life goes on and on and on
Life goes on and on and on
The bank went broke and my well ran dry
It was almost enough to contemplate suicide
I turned on the gas, but then 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
Lizards can blow the waves into shore
But the people recover and come back for more
Somehow, people fight back even if the future looks black
Life goes on and on and on
Life goes on and on and on
Life goes on, it happens every day
So appreciate what you've got before it's taken away
Life will hit you when you're unaware
So be grateful to take all that you can while you're there
