Old men crying, young men dying World still turns as Father Time looks on On and on Children playing, dreamers praying Laughter turns to tear as love has gone Has it gone? Oh, it’s a hard road Oh, it’s a hard road Whirlwind churning, lovers learning On this path of life, we can’t back down Is it wrong? Widows weeping, babies sleeping Life becomes the singer and the song Sing along Oh, it’s a hard road Carry your own load! Why make the hard road? Why can’t we be friends? No need to hurry We’ll meet in the end Why make the hard road? Why can’t we be friends? No need to worry Let’s sing it again Brother’s sharing, mother’s caring Nighttime falling victim to the dawn Shadows small Days are crawling, time is calling To the Earth, another life is gone Love line’s drawn Oh, it’s a hard road Carry your own load! (Oh, it’s a hard road) (Oh, it’s a hard road) Forget all your sorrow (Oh, it’s a hard road) Don’t live in the past And look to the future (Oh, it’s a hard road) 'Cause life goes too fast, you know Forget all your sorrow (Oh, it’s a hard road) Don’t live in the past And look to the future (Oh, it’s a hard road) 'Cause life goes too fast, you know Forget all your sorrow (Oh, it’s a hard road) Don’t live in the past And look to the future (Oh, it’s a hard road) 'Cause life goes too fast, you know
