The sun and the moon never change
They just rearrange
The night and the new day
Gold exchanges for silver
And the light on a river
Gets carried away
On and on, on and on
I lift my head up and I wonder
Just who is it
Calling my name now
I trip on my way and I blunder
My head falling under
A blanket of shame
On and on, on and on
High and low may I go
But God only knows
Just where I am going
The people around me
Wont 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
The 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 say
The sun and the moon never change They just rearrange The night and the new day Gold exchanges for silver And the light on a river Gets carried away
On and on, on and on
I lift my head up and I wonder Just who is it Calling my name now I trip on my way and I blunder My head falling under A blanket of shame
On and on, on and on
High and low may I go But God only knows Just where I am going
The people around me Wont 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
The 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 say
On and on, on and on
