On And On

So Lord, I'll wait for your reply

But I won't hold my breath tonight

You're so much empty sky

And it's too late

The damage has been done

You gave a child a gun

Then turned around and run

And it goes on and on and on

It goes on and on and on

You know that it goes on

We were here long before

And we'll be here when you're gone

It goes on and on and on

You know that it goes on

Believe it if you dare

Still he'll vanish in thin air

As useless as a prayer

And it's too late

The river has been crossed

The war's been fought and lost

Your words have turned to dust

And it goes on and on and on

It goes on and on and on

You know that it goes on

We were here long before

And we'll be here when you're gone

It goes on and on and on

You know that it goes on

And you know you had your chance

And still you won't show your hand

It's not a thing that I call love

It goes on and on and on

You know that it goes on

It goes on and on and on

You know that it goes on and on
