Life Goes On — текст песни (Terri Clark)

(Bob DiPiero & Karyn Rochelle)

Back in 1994
I fell head over heels for the boy next door
I prayed every night and day
That God would turn his head my way
Graduation he moved on
Broke my heart like a country song
Must have cried two rivers long.

Chorus:
Oh, but life goes on
And before too long
You figure out you`re right where you belong
It`s sad and it`s sweet
But if you`re lucky it keeps going on and on and on.

Then came 1999
My heart broke for the second time
Left me cryin` on the steps
Burned me down like a cigarette
Just like that and he was gone
My heart sunk like a ten pound stone
Had no right to do me wrong.

Chorus:
Oh, but life goes on
And before too long
You figure out you`re right where you belong
It`s sad and it`s sweet
But if you`re lucky it keeps going on and on and on.

My mama always said that they`ll be lessons that you learn
You don’t need to know `em all right now
But I`m learnin` as I go
And the more I learn I know
The less I want to know anyhow.

I finally found my whole world
Little boy and a little girl
Got me a man with a heart of gold
It all came back a hundred fold
And I watch the gravel kickin` up
As he pulls in the drive in his pick-up truck
I just smile at my good luck.

Chorus:
Oh, but life goes on
And before too long
You figure out you`re right where you belong
It`s sad and it`s sweet
But if you`re lucky it keeps going on and on and on...
