Daniel Johnston - Got To Go On Lyrics

Daniel Johnston Lyrics

"Got To Go On"

How cruel
Oh, how could you be so mean?
First you wanted me, then you didn't
Oh, I'll never be the same

What a surprise
That look in your eyes
First you wanted me, then you didn't
Oh, I'll never be the same

Got to go on
Walk like a man
Got to go on
Live my life
Got to go on
Knowing you're with him
Another man's wife

You'll never know
Oh, how I loved you so
Why do I waste my time thinking about it
Oh, I don't really know

Maybe it's sad
But I don't mean to jerk anyone's tears
I'm just trying to get over it
Good god it's been three years

Got to go on
Walk like a man
Got to go on
Live my life
Got to go on
Knowing you're with him
Got to go on

Some people carry torches
Long after the fire's gone out
You know who I am
You know who you are
And you know what I'm talking about
