The snows melt to welcome the spring
Blossoms dance and robins sing
Here someone is dying, there a child is born
And so the beat goes on………….
Childhood’s dreams give way to youth
Yesterday’s lies are today’s truths
Here it is dusk, there it is dawn
And so the beat goes on……………
Autumn’s leaves are on the ground
The trees are bare and the birds are gone
Here the gloom is settling, there the mist is rising
And so the beat goes on…………
And thus life trudges drearily on
The eyes are weary and the heart forlorn
Somewhere someone is crying, somewhere someone is laughing
And so the beat………………
