The sun and the moon never change
They just rearrange, but not in the new day
Gold exchanges for silver
And a light on the river gets carried awayOn and on, on and on
On and on, on and onI lift up my head and I wonder
Just who it is calming, calming the moon now
I trip on my way and I blunder
My head hiding under a blanket of shame
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and onI, alone may I go
Where God only knows just where I am going
High, alone may I go
But God only knows just where I am goingThe people around me won't let me
Become what I need to, they want me the same
I look at myself and I want to
Just cover my eyes and give myself a new name
Stones in the sky never worry
They don't have to hurry, they move in their own way
But I have to choose what to do
How to act, what to think, how to talk, what to sayOn and on, on and on
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and on
On and on, on and onOn and on, on and on
On and on, on and on
