The World Goes On lyrics

See the gambler make a stand
Holds a lifetime in his hand
Win the game or lose control
But the world goes on forever
Life's a circle, I recall
Shadows played upon the wall
You pay the piper to call the tune
And the song goes on forever
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/barclay_james_harvest/the_world_goes_on.html ]
And when all the words have gone
There's the thought to carry on
Just like a bird that sings
Leave it all behind and spread your wings
You can leave it all behind - spread your wings

Lay me down
Saw the road move on before me
Times when I was tired and lost my way
Looking at life and strangely for the first time
Thinking that I could stay here
But the world moves on forever


And when all the words have gone
There's the thought to carry on
Just like a bird that sings
Leave it all behind and spread your wings
You can leave it all behind - spread your wings
