Saw a friend the other day, I hadn't seen in quite a while I remember when she used to smile I listened to her story... broken promised and shatered dreams Told me things ain't always what they seem When I gave her my sympathy she said living with regret is something That comes naturally CHORUS: Sometimes you gotta roll with the punches Sometimes you go against the grain Sometimes your hard work pays off Sometimes it's all in vain But no matter what you endure, rest assured Life goes on... Life Goes On As she turned to walk away, said girl I'm going to be all right Life is just a fair and honest fight I learned a brand new lesson If you look beyond the clouds of grey, The pot of gold is one rainbow away It's just a matter... of moving on Don't get caught up in the endless battle proving right from wrong CHORUS: Sometimes you gotta roll with the punches Sometimes you go against the grain Sometimes your hard work pays off Sometimes it's all in vain But no matter what you endure... rest assured Life Goes On... Life goes on Every smile is And the sound of laughter echos like a symphony CHORUS
