L I F E G O E S O N - Noah And The Whale
Lisa likes brandy and the way it hits her lips
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor with pendulum hips
She's got deep brown eyes
That've seen it all
Working at a nightclub that was called The Avenue
The bar men used to call her "Little Lisa Loney Tunes"
She went on almost anyone
From the hard time living 'til the Chelsea days
When From her hair was sweet blonde
'Til the day it turned gray
She said:
L I F E G O E S O N
You've got more than money
And sense my friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L I F E G O E S O N
What you don't have now
Will come back again
You've got heart
And you go in your own way
Some people wear their history
Like a map on their face
And Joey was an artist just living out of case
But his best word was his letters home
His standard works of fiction
About imaginary success
The chorus girls in neon were
His closest things to friends
But to a writer the truth is no big deal
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights
And the black and blue body
From the weekend fights
He'd say
L I F E G O E S O N
You've got more than money
And sense my friend
You've got heart and you go in your own way
L I F E G O E S O N
What you don't have now
Will come back again
You've got heart and you
Go in your own way
On my last night on earth
I won't look to the sky
Just breathe in the air
And blink in the light
On my last night on earth
I'll pay a high price
To have no regrets
And be done with my life
L I F E G O E S O N
You've got more than money
And sense my friend
You've got heart and you
Go in your own way
L I F E G O E S O N
What you don't have now
Will come back again
You've got heart and you
Go in your own way
L I F E G O E S O N
You've got more than money
And sense my friend
You've got heart and you
Go in your own way
L I F E G O E S O N
What you don't have now
Will come back again
You've got heart and you
Go in your own way
