Empty spaces, what are we living for? Abandoned places, I guess we know the score On and on, does anybody know what we are looking for? Another hero, another miner's cry Behind the curtain, in the pantomime Hold the line, does anybody want to take it anymore? The show must go on The show must go on Inside my heart is breaking My neck I may be clinging But my smile still stays on Whatever happens, I leave it all to chance Another heartache, another failure of mine On and on, does anybody know what we are living for? I guess I'm learning, I must be warning I have to be turning, turning, turning around the corner now Outside the door is breaking Inside in the dark I'm aching to be free The show must go on The show must go on Inside my heart is breaking My neck I may be clinging But my smile still stays on My soul is playing like the wings of a butterfly Fairy tales of yesterday grow and never die I can fly my way The show must go on The show must go on I faced it with a grin I never gave it in I'm done with the show I taught the man, I love the tale I have to find a way to carry on With the show The show must go on The show must go on
