Bruce Hornsby And The Range The Show Goes On Lyrics

The Show Goes On Lyrics

What's the long face, whats all the crying for

 Didn't you expect it when you opened your door

 To the man with the long coat and the long list of victims

 Everybody watching knows he's the one keeping score

 >From where she sits, everyone stands in judgement

 People watching as the curtain falls down

 See the lights do a long slow fade...

 

 The show goes on, and the sad-eyed sisters go walking on

 Everyone watching all along

 The show goes on, as the autumn's coming

 and the summer's all gone

 Still without you, the show goes on

 

 Some say she's alright, some say she'll never learn

 Some rush into things, some stand and wait their turn

 I've been here all along standing here all this time

 But you never noticed, just let the same tired flames burn

 >From where she sits, everyone stands in judgement

 People watching as the curtain falls down

 See the lights do a long slow fade

 

 The show goes on, and the sad-eyed sisters go walking on

 Everyone watching all along

 The show goes on, as the autumn's coming

 and the summer's all gone

 Still without you, the show goes on

 

 Time is passing,slowly passing you by

 You better try to find it before it passes you by

 As I watch you walking to another cold dawn

 And you keep on walking

 And they keep on talking

 Talking all along

 

 >From where she sits, everyone stands in judgement

 People watching as the curtain falls down

 See the lights do a long slow fade

 The show goes on, and the sad-eyed sisters go walking on

 Everyone watching all along

 The show goes on, as the autumn's coming

 and the summer's all gone

 Still without you, the show goes on
