Song of the day - The Show Must Go On - Queen
May 7, 2008How many of us smile through the trials of our lives with the attitude that “The show must go on”? I asked my brother Larry tonight for his song of inspiration… and this was his. I thought I would share it with all of you.
Empty spaces - what are we living for
Abandoned places - I guess we know the score
On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for…
Another hero, another mindless crime
Behind the curtain, in the pantomime
Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore
The show must go on,
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on.
Whatever happens, Ill leave it all to chance
Another heartache, another failed romance
On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess Im learning, I must be warmer now
Ill soon be turning, round the corner now
Outside the dawn is breaking
But inside in the dark Im aching to be free
The show must go on
The show must go on
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies
Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die
I can fly - my friends
The show must go on
The show must go on
Ill face it with a grin
Im never giving in
On - with the show -
Ill top the bill, Ill overkill
I have to find the will to carry on
On with the -
On with the show -
The show must go on…
I am a really big Queen fan… Thank you for posting this, because this is definitely one of those songs that inspires you not matter what could be happening around you.
Great song, a classic!
I love the Queen’s song and also the Freddie Mercury’s song … they are fantastic! This song, like others, help me in some difficult moment of my life: I MUST CONTINUE TO LIVE MY LIFE!
