On And On Lyrics
i want a big house that sits by the shore
and when i wake up i can watch the tide rise
all of my friends they would live next door
and every night we'd build a fire in the backyard
we'd listen to all our favorite songs
watch it burn and we sing along
on and on and on oh oh oh
on and on and on
woke up this morning it was bitter cold
pieced together where the car was parked
now im running late to work
i took the backroads behind the prison yard
this year is slinking by so slow
this town has watched me come and go
on and on and on oh oh oh
on and on and on
do you believe that your in control?
of the things that you say you want?
up late watching tv shows
and get the feeling that we are the products
of generations im searching for gold
think we're the best just to stay afloat
on and on and on oh oh oh
on and on and on
the waves crash on and on and on oh oh oh
on and on and on
when you feel the water pull you down
your caught up in the gravity
dont let it take you out to drown
just hold your head above this
take me back to the place
where we were standing at the top
when we were living everyday
like its the last one that we've got
yeah we'll go back to the days that went on and on and on
and we'll get back to the place where waves crashed on and on and on
and when i wake up i can watch the tide rise
all of my friends they would live next door
and every night we'd build a fire in the backyard
we'd listen to all our favorite songs
watch it burn and we sing along
on and on and on
pieced together where the car was parked
now im running late to work
i took the backroads behind the prison yard
this year is slinking by so slow
this town has watched me come and go
on and on and on
of the things that you say you want?
up late watching tv shows
and get the feeling that we are the products
of generations im searching for gold
think we're the best just to stay afloat
on and on and on
the waves crash on and on and on oh oh oh
on and on and on
your caught up in the gravity
dont let it take you out to drown
just hold your head above this
where we were standing at the top
when we were living everyday
like its the last one that we've got
yeah we'll go back to the days that went on and on and on
and we'll get back to the place where waves crashed on and on and on

one of the most beautiful songs on the album
sorry for all the comments :P i think this ones about not being on tour and just being home "this town has watched me come and go"
also "take me back to the place where we were standing at the top when we were living everyday like its the last one that we've got"
they just wanna be back where they were before Colin left
I love this song so much. it should have more comments.
this helps me feel like I'm not alone in that I hate this town, it's so slow, and so cold. I wanna go a place like he describes so bad and just get away from everything
i love this song, prob my favorite from the album. i heard somewhere that Nick was gay...is that true? i love this band im adicted i jsut found out about them like 3 days ago and i have been addicted since. i kind of hope nicks gay...their arent enough popular artists out their. please reply,thanks
