And So It Goes - John Denver With The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

A mansion on a hill is a lovely sight to see 
but like any other house it's only temporary 
Home is anywhere you choose to put your heart 
if there's no love inside it'll soon fall apart. 

Ashes to ashes, dust into dust 
buildings will crumble, bridges will rust, 
mountains will disappear, rivers will dry on 
And so it goes with everything but love, 
so it go--es, everything but love, so it go--es. 

You can drive around in a long limousine 
if you don't know where you're going, you don't mean a thing 
He would walk a mile just to hold an empty hand 
he knows what it means to be a wealthy man. 

Ashes to ashes, dust into dust 
colusses will crumble, bridges will rust, 
mountains will disappear, rivers will dry on 
And so it goes with everything but love, 
so it go--es, everything but love, so it go--es. 

Wordly treasures will all pass away 
there's just one thing's put here to stay 

Ashes to ashes, dust into dust 
kingdoms will crumble, bridges will rust, 
mountains will disappear, rivers will dry on 
And so it goes with everything but love, 
so it go--es, everything but love, 
so it go--es, everything but love, 
so it go--es, everything but love.
