Lyrics
In troubled times
© 2011 Bruce Mills (SOCAN)
The wind will blow in troubled times
The trees will grow ever tall and strong
And In these trees the birds will sing familiar songs
The world goes on, the world goes on, in troubled times
The tides will rise and fall in troubled times
The rain will come and the seasons - they will change
The sun will set and the moon will make it through the night
The world goes on, the world goes on, in troubled times
Chorus
Nothing can stop the turning of the earth every day
The universe continues to unfold
And every soul will have a chance to love someone
In troubled times, the world goes on, the world goes on, and on ...
God will not die in troubled times
No force of nature will ever cease to be
No earthquake silent, no flood, no storm will turn aside
In troubled times, in troubled times, the world goes on
Instrumental break
Chorus
Nothing can stop the turning of the earth every day
No pain the universe cannot contain - no, no, no
No single soul will ever lose a chance to love - (no not one soul)
In troubled times, in troubled times, the world goes on, and on, and on ...
The world goes on!
In troubled times
No stars will fail to shine in troubled times
No mountains move - no rivers lose their way
There will be peace for all - when troubled times are through
The world goes on, the world goes on, in troubled times - oh yeah -
The world goes on, the world goes on, in troubled times
In troubled times
