Hard times won't last forever - the wind will turn again we do what we believe in and the very best we can Oh, everybody needs a reason to live - stay gold and never give up`till you're dead and gone - so: Carry on -we gotta carry on - when the road is getting' rough - times are getting tough - we gotta carry on. Carry on - just carry on - on through the darkest night - we won't give up the fight - we gotta carry on! There must be a light at the end of the tunnel - "the forward impulse" makes us strong 'cause if you do believe in yourself and the future, too - you just can't go wrong. Oh everybody needs a reason to live...... Carry on... Oh, everybody needs a reason to live or we will crash just like a boat on a riff. Oh, everybody sometimes hangs on a cliff but everybody needs a reason to live... Carry on...
