Lyrics How Can I Go On (out-take: extract) - Freddie Mercury
When
all
the
salt
is
taken
from
the
sea
I
stand
dethroned,
I'm
naked
and
I
bleed
But
when
your
finger
points
so
savagely
Is
anybody
there
to
believe
in
me
To
hear
my
plea
and
take
care
of
me?
How
can
I
go
on,
from
day
to
day
Who
can
make
me
strong
in
every
way
Where
can
I
be
safe,
where
can
I
belong
In
this
great
big
world
of
sadness
How
can
I
forget
those
beautiful
dreams
that
we
shared
They're
lost
and
they're
nowhere
to
be
found
How
can
I
go
on?
Sometimes
I
seem
to
tremble
in
the
dark,
I
cannot
see
When
people
frighten
me
I
try
to
hide
myself
so
far
from
the
crowd
Is
anybody
there
to
comfort
me
Lord,
take
care
of
me
How
can
I
go
on
(how
can
I
go
on)
From
day
to
day
(from
day
to
day)
Who
can
make
me
strong
(who
can
make
me
strong)
In
every
way
(in
every
way)
Where
can
I
be
safe
(where
can
I
be
safe)
Where
can
I
belong
(where
can
I
belong)
In
this
great
big
world
of
sadness
(In
this
great
big
world
of
sadness)
How
can
I
forget
(how
can
I
forget)
Those
beautiful
dreams
that
we
shared
(Those
beautiful
dreams
that
we
shared)
They're
lost
and
they're
nowhere
to
be
found
How
can
I
go
on?
How
can
I
go
on?
How
can
I
go
on?
Go
on,
go
on,
go
on
