The Potato Pies – Life Goes On lyrics

You get close to people
Who you care about
You try to calm them
When they shout

They notice you
You notice them too
When they are not there
You wonder and care

They went on holiday in Devon
They didn't come back
They've gone to heaven
And that is that

You don't stop caring
When they're dead
You hear the phone ring
As you cry in your bed

But life goes on
For you
There'll be others
Only one or two

Why do you care
If you know they'll leave
In a life of dare
No- one knows when you grieve
