| I was living far in the future then
|
| Always thinking two or three moves ahead
|
| I did not see that everything I needed
|
| Was right in front of me
|
| Precious moments that I let pass me by
|
| I was focused on what became a lie
|
| Everything I missed, all of those tears of joy
|
| That I will never cry
|
| Life goes on
|
| So I’m standing, inside I’m broken down
|
| And I’m walking but I just don’t know how
|
| I’m trying not to look too far ahead
|
| And not live in the past
|
| Now I’ll take it, whatever you can give
|
| I will be here, this moment’s where I’ll live
|
| Tomorrow may not come and even if it does
|
| I know she won’t be there
|
| Life goes on
|
| And it doesn’t stop for anything or anyone
|
| And I get the feeling that I’m being dragged along
|
| It’s not right or wrong but it is always true
|
| And it just doesn’t matter what I’m going through
|
| And even though I’m on my knees and begging it to stop
|
| The world still turns and life goes on |
