Live On

by Tess Henley

on High Heels & Sneakers (2013)

There was a time you used to call my name,
There was a time youd follow through.
Now youre in a different place, oh somethings changed.
And I am a different person too.

(Chorus)
So we
Live on, live on,
With fewer words to say,
We live on, live on,
And let the memories fade,
We live on, live on,
But please tell me why someday,
Why we live on, live on
This way.

I had my fingers crossed youd come around,
And wed write more stories to be told.
Wed go back to those days when we were bound,
Its sad to say you never showed, no,

(Repeat Chorus)

(Bridge)
Well I hope you love,
And I hope you laugh,
Do what makes you happy,
And makes you glad,
Hope you find what youre looking for, that golden place,

No Im not trying to dwell,
Im not trying to preach,
But you know what really gets to me,
Is years from now Ill still be wondering, why...

(Repeat Chorus)
Why we live on, live on
Why we live on, live on,
Why we live on, live on
This way,
This way,
This way,
This way.
