Funny how the world stops moving when people say goodbye Usually you find they are blind from the tears in their eyes Everybody has that someone who means more to them than life It's a friend or lover, husband or wife And they need each other So they say to one another I'm gonna keep on loving you day by day Keep on loving you in that old familiar way I'm gonna keep on loving you God knows why Keep on loving you till I die Looking through the mail for postmarks that come from you know where Knowing what to say in the way that two can share Everybody knows that feeling when you can't hold back the tears Through a footstep, call, question or rhyme And that same emotion fills those letters every time I'm gonna keep on loving you day by day Keep on loving you in that old familiar way Keep on loving you only God knows why Keep on loving you till I die Keep on loving you day by day Keep on loving you in that old familiar way Keep on loving you only God knows why Keep on loving you till I die Keep on loving you Keep on loving you in that old familiar way Keep on loving you only God knows why Keep on loving you till I die
