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 away Explain [Hook:] On and on, on and on On and on, on and on I lift up my head and I wonder Just who it is calling, calling my name now I trip on my way and I blunder My head hiding under a blanket of shame [Hook] High and low may I go Where 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 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 [Hook x3]
