So Lord, I wait for your reply
But I won't hold my breath tonight
You're so much empty sky
And it's too late
The damage has been done
You gave a child a gun
Then turned around and ran
And it goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
You know that it goes on
We were here long before
And we'll be here when you're gone
It goes on and on and on
You know that it goes on
Believe it if you dare
Still he'll vanish in thin air
As useless as a prayer
And it's too late
The river has been crossed
The war's been fought and lost
Your words have turned to dust
And it goes on and on and on
It goes on and on and on
You know that it goes on
We were here long before
And we'll be here when you're gone
It goes on and on and on
You know that it goes on
And you know you've had your chance
And still you won't show your hand
It's not a thing that I call love
It goes on and on and on
You know that it goes on
It goes on and on and on
You know that it goes on
And on
