Life Goes On (i Wonder Why) Lyrics - Harlan Howard

The day you left I've felt so strange I thought for sure that the world would change 

But the birds still sing and babies still cry and life goes on I wonder why 

An old love dies but nobody cares the world just minds its own affairs 

The winners smile and the losers cry and life goes on I wonder why 

How can that moon that promised so much still shows his face at night 

And those birds that are singing heart that start crying when I walk in sight 

I sit here and cry as lovers stroll by reminding me about you and I 

They live to love while I live to die but life goes on I wonder why 

Yes life goes on I wonder why
