Come and go now as you please
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
And you just sing along

And I finally found that life goes on without you
And the world still turns when you're not around

Is this the way you want it
Is this the way it has to be
Sitting here beside you when my heart's lost in New Orleans
Dreams come clever
Hearts now sever
Difference of forever
And I'm lost there

And I finally found that life goes on without you
And the world still turns when you're not around
And I finally found that life goes on without you
And the world still turns when you're not around

And I finally found out
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
Can you just sing along out loud

Come and go now as you please
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
And you just sing along

And I finally found that life goes on without you
And the world still turns when you're not around
And I finally found that life goes on without you
And the world still turns when you're not around

And I finally found out
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
Your actions write the melodies
To the songs that we sing
Can you just sing along out loud
