On And On And On

  • The sun and the moon never change
    They just rearrange, the night and the new day
    Gold exchanges for silver
    And a light on a river gets carried away

    On and on, on and on
    On and on, on and on

    I lift up my head and I wonder
    Just who it is calming, 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
    On and on, on and on

    High and low may I go
    But God only knows just where I am going
    High and low may I go
    But God only knows just where I am going

    The 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

    The storms 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
    On and on, on and on

    On and on, on and on
    On and on, on and on
    On and on, on and on
    On and on, on and on Writer/s: JACK WHITE
