And So It Goes

I met you on the road
Where friendship flows.
Where it ends
Nobody knows.

It leads to heaven above
And down to the depth of hell below.
It twists and turns around and around
... And so it goes.

I've been on this road
Many times before
You'd think by now
I'd know the score.

I’ve felt it all,
The high and the lows.
The laughter and the heartbreak
... And so it goes.

But a loving heart
Keeps searching on
It heals and forgives
And forgets the wrong.

So I'll start all over
As this friendship grows,
Hoping it lasts forever
... And never, ever goes.

~ Jo ~

And so it goes

In every heart there is a room
A sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past
Until a new one comes along.
I spoke to you in cautious tones,
You answered me with no pretense.
And still I feel I said too much,
My silence is my self-defense.
And every time I’ve held a rose
It seems I only felt the thorns.
And so it goes, and so it goes,
And so will you soon I suppose.
But if my silence made you leave,
Then that would be my worst mistake.
So I will share this room with you,
And you can have this heart to break.
And this is why my eyes are closed,
It’s just as well for all I’ve seen.
And so it goes, and so it goes,
And you’re the only one who knows.
So I would choose to be with you,
That's if the choice were mine to make.
But you can make decisions too,
And you can have this heart to break.
And so it goes, and so it goes,
And you’re the only one who knows.
