keep on trying
this is our time
keep on loving
keep holding on

Even during times of separation, your voice can still be heard
If it is love, believe   Love only, believe
Even if you are hurt and collapse,  immediate change in blood transfusion
If it is love, believe   Love only, believe
Before long, night ends and morning comes
So it is, scary things and such cannot be

So now just go forth, spread out to the world
Oh Within this heart, wanting to hold you tight
Yielding to wherever you walk
Oh  Continuing endlessly, on to a shiny road   Oh Yeah!

Even if it is only a small feeling, your heart will transmit it
From love we touch   Love only we touch
From only one thought, the door of eternity is opened
From love we touch   Love only we touch
Time goes on in a never stopping flow
So it is, these are things and such that no one can interrupt

So now just go forth, spread out to the world
Oh Unchanging thoughts   only that you want to believe
Yielding to wherever you walk
Oh One more time beginning again, continuing on the road to tomorrow

keep on trying
keep on loving
keep holding on

So now just go forth, spread out to the world
Oh Within this heart, wanting to hold you tight
Yielding to wherever you walk
Oh  Continuing endlessly, on to a shiny road   Oh Yeah!
