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 mindless crime Behind the curtain In the pantomime Hold the line, does anybody know what we are living for?
CHORUS The show must go on The show must go on Inside my heart is breaking My make-up may be flaking, but my smile still stays on
Whatever happens I'll leave it all to chance Another heartache Another failed romance On and on, does anybody know what we are living for?
I guess I'm learning I must be warmer now I'll soon be turning round the corner now Outside the dawn is breaking but inside, in the dark I'm aching to be free
CHORUS
My soul is painted like the wings of butterflies Fairytales of yesterday will grow but never die I can fly, my friends
The show must go on (yeah) The show must go on I'll face it with a grin I'm never giving in On with the show
Ooh, I'll top the bill, I'll overkill
I have to find the will to carry on (On with the show)
