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
