Elusive happiness Can be like promises That rest so gently on our pillow We stood out on the ledge And leaned over the edge And nearly fell right through that window There were those who had us done by now Baby, we've only just begun Chorus: The world may crash and burn Or suddenly just cease to turn But love goes on It may look out of reach And time may rob us like a thief But love goes on Our love goes on No one may recognize What lives behind our eyes Sometimes the good times are the hardest And when my strength is gone It's you that I lean on A light at the end of all my darkness And in the end if I know nothing else The answer is only in your arms Chorus: The world may crash and burn Or suddenly just cease to turn But love goes on It may look out of reach And time may rob us like a thief But love goes on And in the end if I know nothing else The answer is right here in your arms It's always in your arms Chorus: The world may crash and burn Or suddenly just cease to turn But love goes on It may look out of reach And time may rob us like a thief But love goes on Oh love goes on It may look out of reach And time may rob us like a thief But love goes on
