How Can I Go On |
| When all the salt is taken from the sea |
| I stand dethroned |
| I’m naked and I bleed |
| But when your finger points so savagely, |
| Is anybody there to believe in me To hear my plea and take care of me? |
| How can I go on |
| From day to day |
| Who can make me strong in every way |
| Where can I be safe |
| Where can I belong |
| In this great big world of sadness |
| How can I forget |
| Those beautiful dreams that we shared |
| They’re lost and they’re no where to be found |
| How can I go on? |
| Sometimes I tremble in the dark |
| I cannot see |
| When people frighten me I try to hide myself so far from the crowd |
| Is anybody there to comfort me Lord… take care of me. |
| How can I go on |
| From day to day |
| Who can make me strong in every way |
| Where can I be safe |
| Where can I belong |
| In this great big world of sadness |
| How can I forget |
| Those beautiful dreams that we shared |
| They’re lost and they’re no where to be found |
| How can I go on? |
