Moving On

When I was 19, I met a handsome boy
He swept me off my feet
I was in my hometown, he was travelling
A stranger soon my lover my friend

We'd stay up all night, just to watch the sun rise
I'd fall asleep in his arms
We rode that wave together for a while
Til the wind it blew him away

Got to keep, moving on, moving on
Got to keep moving on and on
Got to keep, moving on, moving on
Got to keep moving on and on
And on

In my 79 Volkswagon, combi van, baby blue
I followed that boy to the south
I drove all night just to be by his side
So free, so young, so in love

And we made a life together
I thought he was forever
Til a dark cloud moved over our home
A light growing inside of me
You weren't ready to live that dream
I knew, it was time to go

Got to keep, moving on, moving on
Got to keep moving on and on
Got to keep, moving on, moving on
Got to keep moving on and on
And on

When I look back now and see your eyes
They were just as scared as mine
I wish I'd seen it then
But the choices we made yesterday
No one can take away
I wish you'd held my hand
Oh I wish you'd held my hand

Got to keep, moving on, moving on
Got to keep moving on and on
Got to keep, moving on, moving on
Got to keep moving on and on
And on
