Life Goes On

(album: Staying Alive - 1983)

Pardon me , if I use you in my dreams
You throw those angel eyes at me
Or could the beautiful woman be more than she seems
But she is not in love with me
All of my life I been looking for someone to carry my love away
A chip on my shoulder , a misery , suddenly there you are
Nobody knows , but she knows that I love her
It's got to be growing
I can't wait no longer

Life goes on for the lonely man
When love goes wrong only love knows why
Life goes on for the lonely man
We'll be the dreams , we'll be the seasons
You and I , I

Suddenly , all the world gets in the way
You disappear into the crowd
Maybe the beautiful woman never really came
But I still call your name out loud
I wanna know you , but I never met you
Reality can be cruel
If a wandering soul meets another
They shouldn't be separated
Better in love with your head on my shoulder
But I'll never be satisfied
And if I can't see you

Life goes on for the lonely man
When love goes wrong , only love knows why
Life goes on for the lonely man
We'll be the dreams , we'll be the seasons
You and I , I

Living your life in someone else's heart
A lover's dream that has no end
There may be somebody you can base your world upon
I'll never be the same again
And there's a part of me here
And there's a part of me with you
But all of me loves you
Nobody gave me the feeling you gave me
I'm so proud of
All of my days I will be here for you
And the love keeps running
And if I can't hold you

Life goes on for the lonely man
And there's a million words for the one goodbye
Life goes on for the lonely man
We'll be the dreams, we'll be the seasons
You and I , I
