lyrics

Early one autumn morn I set out on my way
Following any trail that led me far away
Until I crossed the Sioux I felt that I might turn—
Around but I knew I had memories to burn

You were so precious forever I’d have held you
But something changed your love turned cold like a stone
You meant the world to me - now it’s all over
And now I’m thrust into this life all alone

I thought about us as I crossed the great divide
I saw your face in the mountain I climbed to get to the other side
I heard your voice in the howling wind by the fireside near dark
Though I’d come a hundred miles your love still left its mark

And still I’ve learned oh so much on this journey
You give and take and then you give back again
All of the reasons I had just for giving up
Throw ‘em away cause baby I want to live

And it goes on and on
It goes on and on
Life goes on and on without you
