Old men crying, young men dying,

World still turns as father time

Looks on

On and on,

Children playing, dreamers praying,

Laughter turns to tears

Love has gone, has it gone?

Oh, it's a hard road

Oh, it's a hard road



Poets yearning, lovers learning,

On this path of life we pass along

Is it wrong?

Widows weeping, babies sleeping,

Life becomes the singer and the song

Sing along



Oh, it's a hard road

Carry your own load



Why make the hard road?

Why can't we be friends?

No need to hurry

We'll meet in the end



Why make the hard road?

Why can't we be friends?

No need to worry

Let's sing it again



Brother's sharing, mother's caring,

Nighttime falling victim to the dawn

Shadows mourn,

Days are falling, time is calling

To the Earth another life is born

Love line drawn



Oh, it's a hard road

Carry your own load



Oh, it's a hard road...

We're living in sorrow

We're living the best

And look to the future

'Cause life goes together now...
