Empty spaces, what are we living for?
abandoned places, i guess we know the score
on and on, does anybody know what we are looking for?

Another hero, another mindless crime
behind the curtain, in the pantomime
hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore?

The show must go on
the show must go on
inside my heart is breaking
my make-up may be flaking
but my smile still stays on

Whatever happens, i'll leave it all to chance
another heartache, another failed romance
on and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
i guess i'm learning, i must be warmer now
i'll soon be turning, round the corner now
outside the dawn is breaking
but inside in the dark i'm aching to be free

The show must go on
the show must go on
inside my heart is breaking
my make-up may be flaking
but my smile still stays on

My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
fairy tales of yesterday, will grow but never die
i can fly, my friends

The show must go on
the show must go on
i'll face it with a grin, i'm never giving in
on with the show

I'll top the bill, i'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
on with the, on with the show
the show must go on .-

Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
higher than any bird ever flew
longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
i've been in love with you

Stronger than any mountain cathedral
truer than any tree ever grew
deeper than any forest primeval
i am in love with you

I'll bring fires in the winters
you'll send showers in the springs
we'll fly through the falls and summers
with love on our wings

Through the years as the fire starts to mellow
burning lines in the book of our lives
though the binding cracks
and the pages start to yellow
i'll be in love with you
i'll be in love with you

Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
higher than any bird ever flew
longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
i've been in love with you
i am in love with you .-
