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
|
|
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
|
