Cover art for On and On lyrics by Stephen Bishop

Stephen Bishop can take a sorry sucker's life sound sweet with his voice... sort of the way Maroon 5 can sing about heartbreak and misery nd you are happy to sing along.

My Opinion

@Windywords , I also believe in the key words of the refrain, β€œOn and on he just keeps on trying and he smiles when he feels like crying.” Whether one is hurt from love gone wrong, or life circumstances, never give up hope. When I heard that song in middle school many years ago that was what I took from it. Until this day I hear stay strong, persist and keep a positive attitude. Those are the sentiments I receive from this song.
