"How Can We Go On" lyrics

How can we go on believing
When nothing ever works out right
How can we go on living
With all the heartaches we seem to invite

What makes us keep on trying
When the pieces never seem to fit
And are the tears we cry implying
That the time is right to quit

Somebody tell us how do we stop what we've started
This whole thing has gone on far too long

We ain't leavin' nothing to the imagination
We ain't seein' nothin' but the end in sight
We ain't giving room enough for inspiration
How can we go on

Well, we could try and talk about it
They say that words can heal the deepest wounds
But when our pride won't allow it
We might as well give it up for good

Just when we get up the courage
And look each other in the eyes
Something starts coming over us
Must be the love that won't let us die

Somebody tell us how do we stop what we've started
It's easier, much easier said than done

We ain't leavin' nothing to the imagination
We ain't seein' nothin' but the end in sight
We ain't giving room enough for inspiration
How can we go on

We ain't leavin'
We ain't seein' nothin' but the end in sight
We ain't giving room enough for inspiration
How can we go on
