On and On (Times Like These)

In times like these, in times like those
What will be will be and so it goes
And it always goes on and on and on and on and on
On, and on and on and on and on it goes

Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm

And there's always been laughing, crying, birth and dying
Boys and girls, with hearts to take and give and break
And heal and grow and re-create
And raise and nurture but then hurt in times

And times like these and times like those
What will be will be and so it goes

And there will always be stop and go and fast and slow
And actions, reactions, and sticks, and stones and broken bones
And those for peace and those for war
And God bless these ones not those ones

But these ones made times like these and times like those
What will be will be and so it goes
And it always goes on and on and on
And on and on and on and on
And on and on and on it goes

Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm

Somehow I know, it won't be the same
And somehow I know it won't be the same
