On and On

In the purple setting sun, she rides her horse around the ring

Gives him a kick, he starts to run, keeping time and galloping

They ride around until they're free, into the wilderness unknown

Living out her fantasy on that brave strawberry roan

On and on (on and on)

On and on

He locks the door, dims the light, trims the knob, flips a switch

He plays a chord, it sounds alright, his head is light, his fingers twitch

He plays the rythm and the blues from midnight to the dawn

Singin' "Have You Heard The News" like there ain't no other song

On and on

On and on

On and on from the beginning

Round and round this world keeps spinning

All alone (all alone)

On and on

In the summer of the loon, on a hidden harbor shore

By the shimmering moon they never wanted nothin' more

And there ain't another sound they been waitin' for so long

She takes his hand and pulls him down and their love lives on and on

On and on (on and on)

On and on

Standin' by his father's grave, trying hard to find a tear

Preacher says Jesus saves but he did not save him here

And he wonders right out loud "daddy, where did we go wrong?"

As his sad bewildered cryin' leaves him starin' at the stone (at the stone)

On and on (on and on)

On and on

On and on from the beginning

Round and round this world keeps spinning

All alone (all alone)

On and on (on and on)
