The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Every day I recognise What's deceased and what's alive Don't repeat what I just said Until gold has turned to lead And all the tales will be told Whilst you and I are in the cold But don't think this is the end 'Cause it's just begun my friend When it's done And all this is gone Just find the feeling Pass it on For every tear cried in shame There'll be someone else to blame And every crime that I commit There'll be a punishment to fit And I'd accept what's coming round If I could only lose this sound That's been ringing in my ears And tormenting me for years When it's done And all this is gone Just find the feeling Pass it on When it's done And all this is gone Just find the feeling Pass it on Just find the feeling Pass it on Just find the feeling Pass it on Just find the feeling Pass it on
