  1. Going Through The Motions

From the recording Spilt Milk

Share

Lyrics

going through the motions
going through the motions

go through the motions
nobody else could ever tell
but I got the notion
we're doing the things we know too well

keep on preteding
you're living out all your dreams
trying to blend in
and now it seems that we're just

going through the motions
going through the motions
going through the motions
going through the motions

slow summer passing
watching the days go on and on
what's everlasting
not all the good times they're all gone

they're all a memory
places we've been to once before
tell me you love believe
but I don't believe you any more

go through the motions
nobody else could ever tell
but I got the notion
we're doing the things we know too well

they're all a memory
those days are over after all
are we temporary
or would you prefer to call it

going through the motions
going through the motions
going through the motions
going through the motions

ah ah ah ah ah
ah ah ah ah ah
ah ah ah ah ah
ah ah ah ah ah
