Big Country - From Here To Eternity lyrics

How will I know if it's not like the first time How will I know if this is the one I try and hold you not for the first time You step away and the past goes on If I hold out for you will you hold out for me Hold out from here to eternity If I wait for you will you come to me I need you from here to eternity Times I walk through empty and aimless Dragging days like a worn-out mule A night so empty it can only be painless Weak and weary as your favorite fool If I hold out for you will you hold out for me Hold out from here to eternity If I wait for you will you come to me I need you from here to eternity I need you from here to eternity But I carry on and I carry on I carry on and I carry on I carry on and I carry on I carry on, I carry on I must take comfort in the little you leave me The ring you stole on the darkest night The weight of souvenirs that lie to deceive me The dust of journeys and the scent of life If I hold out for you will you hold out for me Hold out from here to eternity If I wait for you will you come to me I need you from here to eternity I need you from here to eternity But I carry on and I carry on I carry on and I carry on I carry on, I carry on I carry on, I carry on
