《On and On It Goes》歌词

[00:00:00] On And On It Goes - Mary Chapin Carpenter

[00:00:28] River starts with a drop of rain somewhere in this world

[00:00:35] Light years shape this arc of sky and sand

[00:00:39] A precious pearl and

[00:00:42] You will light a stranger's life by letting yours unfurl

[00:00:48] On and on it goes sparks upon the wind

[00:00:55] Like a July 4th a crown of stars and a good time grin

[00:01:01] On and on it flies on a new bird's wing

[00:01:09] In a beating heart the moon that rose

[00:01:12] And the gift of spring

[00:01:20] You can say that you'll never matter lose or win

[00:01:27] World won't care and it's hard to

[00:01:29] Bear such a lonely wind

[00:01:33] But you can change a stranger's life

[00:01:37] By letting yours begin

[00:01:40] And on and on it goes chances everywhere

[00:01:47] Like the train you took and the rain

[00:01:50] That fell on the summer air

[00:01:54] And on and on it flies like the time we've lost

[00:02:01] It's either running out

[00:02:03] Or covering all our dreams in rust

[00:02:40] Every night the TV shows one more bad day's news

[00:02:47] A world away from what I know and what I do

[00:02:53] But I could save a stranger's life if I had a clue

[00:03:00] And on and on it goes attention must be paid

[00:03:07] Before it seems

[00:03:09] We're one soul short and a second late

[00:03:14] And on and on it flies across the stratosphere

[00:03:21] At the speed of love

[00:03:23] If you stop and feel it you will hear

[00:03:28] On and on it goes sparks upon the wind

[00:03:35] Like a July 4th

[00:03:37] The crown of stars and a good time grin

[00:03:41] On and on it flies on a new bird's wing

[00:03:49] In a beating heart the moon that rose

[00:03:53] And the gift of spring
