Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Life goes on and we pass through
Days of sunlight, days of tears
Live the way life comes to you
Foolish wasting precious years
[Verse 2]
Life goes on, one day you cry
Then your laughter fills the air
See the winter paint the sky
Feel a moment of despair
[Verse 3]
One day you trust in love
The world exists for you
One day you trust no more
And then the world turns blue
[Verse 4]
Life goes on and we pass through
Days of sunlight, days of tears
Live the way life comes to you
Foolish wasting precious years
[Verse 5]
One day you trust in love
The world exists for you
One day you trust no more
And then the world turns blue
[Verse 6]
Life goes on and we pass through
Days of sunlight, days of tears
Live the way life comes to you
Foolish wasting precious years
[Verse 7]
Here today, tomorrow gone
Say goodbye and life goes on
Written by: Bernie Wayne, Mikis Theodorakis
