Going On

I can be your music

Whatever you may hear

I can be what’s whispering

Behind your lady’s ear

I can be the rustle

One step close behind

I can be the memory

You’re trying not to remind

I can be the shadows

I can be real near

I can be so crooked mean

Whenever you are here

So don’t test me, boy

I wouldn’t try your luck

Can’t say what I’ll do

If you really want to go for it

Then I’ll pray for you

Got no guarantee

What you will find

But I’ll always be

One step close behind

You wanna roll the dice

Do you trust your hand

I’d grab your coat

And I’d grab a friend

It’s going down

Or it's going wrong

But either way, it’s going on

Promise me you won’t try

Promise never ask why

And as the years fly by

Promise me you’ll not cry

I offer one reply

Promises can die

Dry your eyes

Grab the wheel

Do not think

Try not to feel

On the mend

Will you heal

An orchid’s power

Is concealed

I’ll dance with the fairies

Under the old bridge

And when the music falters

No one takes the hint

So don’t test me, boy

I wouldn’t try your luck

Can’t say what I’ll do

If you really want to go for it

Then I’ll pray for you

Got no guarantee

What you will find

But I’ll always be

One step close behind

You wanna roll the dice

Do you trust your hand

I’d grab your coat

And I’d grab a friend

It’s going down

Or it's going wrong

But either way, it’s going on
