Sitting by the window
Staring out into the night
Waiting up for the light of day, yeah
And the sound of silence
The faintly flaring candle light
Parting's got me 'round to go insane, yeah

Alone I try to while away my time
Seconds turn to ages
As I close my eyes and wait
Sometimes I wonder
What's the reason why
We long for someone to embrace
And say hello to say goodbye

Carry on - and I will forever
Longing drives bad memories away
And still I carry on and I will forever
When I see you smile
I dare to believe again, oh

Is there anybody out there
To keep on looking for?
If you don't know then lie to me, oh
Blue eyed for a letdown
If this is what it takes
To maybe see the light:
I'll dare to shed another tear
Oh, I know the wind blows cold tonight
But anyhow I gotta go
Tell me, girl, where are you now

Carry on - and I will forever
Longing drives bad memories away
And still I carry on and I will forever
When I see you smile
I dare to believe again

I tried to build a wall
And let nobody in
(To be on my own)
Without love and without pain
(Without pain)
I don't know why but everytime
I look into your face
(Into your face)
I am caught and I relapse again
Ah, yeah

Carry on, it's forever
Longing drives bad memories away

Carry on - and I will forever
Longing drives bad memories away
And still I carry on and I will forever
Cause when I see you smile
I dare to believe again
Carry on - and I will forever
Longing drives bad memories away
I'm always gonna carry on and I will forever
Cause when I see you smile
I dare to believe again, oooh

I'm gonna believe again
(On my quest, forever)
You make me believe again
(On my quest, forever)
