A shooting star tumbles down

It's flame cannot endure

A scarlet rose withers brown

Oh but love, love goes on

Fortunes fail and disappear

Like castles in the sand

But yields to stronger hands

Fame lasts for a moment

Then in a moment, it is gone
C G
Oh but love, love goes on

And faces show their years

Tunes are soon forgotten

And singers lose their song

But love goes on

A baby boy, a starlit night

Kings on bended knee

Healing hands bringing sight

Then tortured on a tree

A woman sings, rejoicing

"He is risen, he is gone"

Because love, love goes on

Oh love, oh love goes on
