Life goes on


You get a thunderbolt from out of the blue
And it changes everything about the life you knew
Yes the storm breaks and your heart aches
And then life goes on.

When a long time love just disappears
You need someone new to help you through those impatient years
And those sad days, all those mad days
While your life goes on.

You know it's over but you can't let go
It's not easy when it comes to saying all those last goodbyes
In that moment when your dreams lie scattered in the dust
You find something you can trust
Love comes to meet you like a brand new day
Love comes to you all along the way.

You're walking down the street but you're lost in space
And the future comes to meet you and you like it's face
From a blue note comes a new note
And your life goes on.

You don't need miracles to point the way
When you know that love is still the reason to believe
In that moment when you know you might have given up
Someone fills your lovin' cup
And lies beside you ‘til the break of day
Love comes to you all along the way.

A million stars shine in the darkest night
From across the universe there comes eternal light
From this blue world to a new world
Somewhere life goes on.

Life goes on...
Life goes on...

Biografia

Gerry Rafferty (1947-2011) was a Scottish singer-songwriter and guitarist known for his folk rock style influenced by blues. Born in Paisley, Scotland, Rafferty began his musical career in the 1960s with the groups The Humblebums and Stealers Wheel. With the latter, he achieved international success in 1973 with the single "Stuck in the Middle with You", which became a rock classic. After the dissolution of Stealers Wheel, Rafferty embarked on a successful solo career, releasing albums such as "City to City" (1978) and "Right Down the Line" (1980), both characterized by catchy melodies and introspective lyrics. His most famous song is probably "Baker Street", a 1978 single that topped the charts in many countries thanks also to the famous saxophone solo. Rafferty continued to record music until the late 1990s, although he never reached the commercial success of his early years. He died in 2011 at the age of 63.
