From the recording Retrospective
Lyrics
Moving on
Well I think it was a Friday but it could have been another day
Well I don’t like change but I couldn’t see another way
Hold on tight to that chain
Or jump on top of a moving train
Cause the old is leaving and the new is here to stay
Well I hung around the girl and it must have been a couple of years
Let her get close, but I didn’t let her get very near
One day she kind of looked up at me
And I looked right back and we both could see
That the old is fading and the new is coming in clear
Chorus
Well we’re moving on
Don’t know where we’re going
Yeah we’re moving on
We got cards we still ain’t showing
And we’ll find a way
On a road we’ve never traveled
No use waiting now gotta be moving on
Started out sure about knowing all there is to know
Make a little money and we gotta be star of the show
Years get a little bit long
Wind up singing the same old song
it’s not the tune, it’s really just time to go
Chorus
All this moving on
Leaves so much behind
It’s the price you pay
Cause if you stay, you lose what you will find
Well the winter is coming and I can feel that snow in the air
I could go out walking but it’s warm in the easy chair
There’s just one winter to go
Going away where the warm wind blows
In the bright sunshine and we won’t have a care
Well we’re moving on
We know just where we’re going
Yeah we’re moving on
We got cards we gonna show ‘em
And we’ll find a way
On the road we’ve always traveled
Not much longer now gonna be moving on
