I'm just going through the motions of living

She seemed to love me so how was I to know

I'd be going through motions of living

I've lost so much within I'll never love again

I'm going through the motions of living

When you see me breast in my very best

I'm going through the motions of living

It isn't really me it's what I used to be I'm going through the motions of living

You have to live so much to know so little so little in return of all the giving

We laughed we loved I've cried we parted and I died

Now I'm going through the motions of living

We laughed we loved I've cried we parted and I died

Now I'm going through the motions of living (living) living oh Lord
