I didn’t think it would be easy
But then again I was quite hopeful too
No looking back
Full steam ahead
Thought that would see me through
And there’s no-one who could have told me
Hard of hearing words just don’t get through
No looking back
Full steam ahead
Hey what have I to lose?
Yeah it’s a bit of a joke
Sometimes I try to laugh too
Maybe the writing’s on the wall
But if it is I cannot see
And I don’t give a damn no more
If that’s the way it’s gonna be
If I’m an optimist by nature
Well there are those who say I’m just a fool
I laugh at them, they laugh at me
The feelings’ mutual
And everyday it’s getting harder
We talk about it getting better soon
Another year has come and gone
And there’s so much to do
Yeah it’s a hell of a joke
Sometimes I try to laugh too
Maybe the writing’s on the wall
But if it is I cannot see
And I don’t give a damn no more
If that’s the way it’s gonna be
The way it’s gonna be
The way it’s gonna be
I can’t take much more
And one more thing
It’s pretty cold around here
Summer’s come and gone in a day or two
I haven’t seen the sun in years
Maybe the writing’s on the wall
But if it is I cannot see
And I don’t give a damn no more
If that’s the way it’s gonna be
I don’t give a damn no more
If that’s the way it’s gonna be
