Iya Terra feat. The Simpkin Project Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lift up your head weary one
I see that sorrow in your eyes
Life got you down again
But you've got to realize
It takes time to learn, it takes time to grow
So be patient and be kind, And
All that you seek you will find
Dust to dust and ash to ash (ay)
This too shall pass in the time, and you
Got to trust, yeah you got to trust
Good things coming in time, and Life Goes On
Life Goes On, woe
And you can count on me to be the one
That's never gonna leave you lonely
Count on me to be the one
That is gonna love you always, woe woe
When you're feeling sad and blue
I'll be there to see you through, so
Don't cry no more
I said don't cry, my darling
True it takes some time for one to refine
The steps upon the path you are leading
The harder the pursuit, it remains the truth
The harder it will be to achieve it
And though you feel like giving up
When the path gets rough
You must be string, life must go
Don't cry, my darling, don't cry
Dust to dust and ash to ash (ay)
This too shall pass in the time, and you
Got to trust, yeah you got to trust
Good things coming in time, and Life Goes On
Life Goes On, woe
Life Goes On
And you can count on me to be the one
That's never gonna leave you lonely
Count on me to be the one
That is gonna love you always, woe woe
When you're feeling sad and blue
I'll be there to see you through, so
Don't cry no more
I said don't cry, my darling
