[Verse 1]
Time keeps tearing everything in two
These pieces start to come unglued
And a little bitter weather comes through
But you and me were built to last
And there's nothing that we can't get past
So let 'em all come and go 'cause we know
[Chorus]
Like a river runs straight into the sun
We go on and on and on
Like a melody stuck in your memory
It just keeps growing stronger
Buildings fall, they disappear
But after all that, we'll be standing here
'Cause we go on and on and on
[Verse 2]
Heartbreak happens every minute of the day
People getting in their own way
They keep waiting for the world to end
When California falls into the sea
And you'll be standing right next to me
So let 'em all rise and fall 'cause after all
[Chorus]
Like a river runs straight into the sun
We go on and on and on
Like a melody stuck in your memory
It just keeps growing stronger
Buildings fall, they disappear
But after all that, we'll be standing here
'Cause we go on and on and on
[Bridge]
When everything is said and done
We go on and on and on
[Chorus]
Like a river runs straight into the sun
We go on and on and on
Like a melody stuck in your memory
It just keeps growing stronger
Buildings fall, they disappear
But after all that, we'll be standing here
'Cause we go on and on and on
[Outro]
Yeah, we go on and on and on, yeah!
On and on and on
