Life Goes On Just another homeless guy, got a spot on Third Avenue Every day I’d pass him by, I’m sorry that there’s nothin’ that I can do I see the pain in his eyes and what he’s tryin’ to say I can’t help but wonder how it is that he got this way And though he’s cold and lonely, I’ve never seen him cry He just sits and watches as the world goes by Life goes on Somewhere in America lost people livin’ a lie Spendin’ their days just preparin’ to die And though in their hearts they’re believin’ what they’re doin’ is right When anything goes, God only knows what they’re talkin’ about tonight Do they plan a new tomorrow, or say their sad goodbyes? Hoping to find a better time on the other side, Still… Life goes on, yeah for those who survive And it’s only just a matter of time Take what you’ve got and hold on, ‘cause life goes on In one town, an ordinary day While another town is bein’ swept away Well your home is safe and warm and life is treatin’ ya good There’s a devastating fire in another neighborhood Sad to see a family so helpless as their dreams just burn away While the family across the street watches with nothing they can say, But… Life goes on, yeah for those who get by Yes it’s only just a matter of time Well take what you’ve got and hold on because Life goes on Hear what you wanna hear, we all see what we wanna see So we can all pretend the world is the way we’d like it to be And the lonely man somehow faded away Found out life had a price that he couldn’t pay He was a man that nobody noticed, never knew his name All in all Third Avenue still looks the same, ’cause… Life goes on, make the most of your ride It’s all just a passage in time When you and I are gone, life will still go on
