Movin’ On

Lyrics

Come on, son, there's someone on the telephone Tellin' me: 'I'm sorry, you'll have to go alone' 'Cause John can't make it this time' I said: 'I hope he's better soon' It never crossed my mind he's movin' on Way up high above me the summer rolled along Lyin' down by the riverside I knew that something's wrong And then it happened almost the way I knew it would When they told me : 'Who did everything we could ?' But he's movin' on, movin' on back against the wall Movin' on, movin' on There was everybody waiting as they drove him slowly past I'll never quite get over my feelings that won't last For somebody who's leaving it happens all the time They never die, they're only movin' on Like harbour lights that drift away, a twinkle and it's gone But we go on and on It ain't easy in a moment you know that it's over You're on your own You're all alone and you're back against the wall Movin' on, movin' on, movin' on, movin' on They never die, they're only movin' on
