I spend my whole life wondering
What it's all about
But I just keep on moving
Moving with the crowd
Makes me feel like crying
Just to watch us go
Living life and dying
On that same old road
No it ain't no use
No it ain't no use
It ain't no use cryin' all the time

'Cause life goes on
Yeah life goes on
Nothin' really changes as life goes on
I've seen children comin', I've seen old men die
But nothin' really changes, life goes on
It makes us all alike
It makes us all alike

People walk all around me
But I don't know what to say
I'm just smilin' at my neighbour
But he turns away
He's just moving slowly
On that same old road
He looks like he's not knowing
That we're growing old
Maybe he's right
Maybe I'm wrong
It ain't no use wonderin' all the time

'Cause life goes on
Yeah life goes on
Nothin' really changes as life goes on
I've seen children comin', I've seen old men die
But nothin' really changes, life goes on
It makes us all alike
It makes us all alike

(Life goes on)
(Life goes on)

(Yeah, life goes on)

Nothin' really changes as life goes on
Life goes on
Yeah life goes on
Nothin' really changes as life goes on
(Life goes on) Life goes on (Life goes on)
(Life goes on) Life goes on (Life goes on)
(Life goes on) Life goes on (Life goes on) (On and on and on)
(Life goes on) Life goes on (Life goes on) (On and on and on)
(Life goes on) Life goes on (Life goes on) (On and on and on)
And on
And on and on and on…
(Life goes on) Life goes on
(Life goes on) Life goes on
(Nothing really changes)
Nothing really changes
(Nothing really changes)
Nothing really changes
Nothing really changes changes changes
(No) Nothing really changes changes changes
(Nothing really changes) Life goes on (Oh no)
Oh, life goes on (On and on and on)

Goes on
On and on
Life goes on and on
Life…
You'll never know
Why…
Life goes on and on
Life…
Oh whatever, what you feel
Life goes on and on!

Huuuuy!!…
Huuuuy!!…
Huuuuy!!…
Huuuuy!!…
Huuuuy!!…
