When you heart's on the edge

Barely hanging on like a midnight cigarette

When the nights don't seem to end

And that lonely wind is singing you to sleep once again

I won't make a promise I can't keep

Like a river flows to the ocean deep

It goes on and on

Bound to forever

Even when we're gone

It goes on and on

We'll be together

At the rising of the dawn

It goes on

When your mind's on the loose

Slowly wearing out like a faded old tattoo

When the days all look the same

When that lonely wind keeps singing only you can ease the pain

That's the kind of bond that you can't break

Like looking up at all the stars in space

It goes on and on

Bound to forever

Even when we're gone

It goes on and on

We'll be together

At the rising of the dawn

It goes on

Digging through the sands of time to find my way back home

Your memory's the thing that keeps me hanging on

To know I'm not alone, we're stronger than the bonds of blood

Even on the darkest days together through the valley of the gun

It goes on and on

Bound to forever

Even when we're gone

It goes on and on

We'll be together

At the rising of the dawn

We'll be together

At the rising of the dawn
