You know time, is on your side
Oh, you got a young heart honey
Of the purest kind
And I know you′ll, you'll be fine
Oh, yeah, you can, can catch them up
′Til we wait in line
Oh
'Cause all these books are heavy
You'll get strong
Keep moving on and on, long gone
All until the story′s ready
Keep it steady, and the beat will come
On and on
Huh-oh, huh-oh
We found love at a hopeless time
Oh, he was a sweetheart, yes
But he was not mine
We hit quicksand and everything else got out of hand
But you should always build your house on the solid ground
′Cause all these books are heavy
You'll get strong
Keep moving on and on, long gone
All until the story′s ready
Keep it steady, and the beat will come
On and on
Huh-oh, huh-oh
Huh-oh, huh-oh
Goes on and on, it goes on and on
Take it all back, take it all back
Goes on and on
Take it all back, take it all back
It goes on and on
'Cause all these books are heavy
You′ll get strong
Keep moving on and on in the long run
All until the story's ready
Keep it steady, and the beat will come
On and on
Huh-oh, huh-oh
Huh-oh, huh-oh
On and on
And all these books are heavy
You′ll get strong
Keep moving on and on, long gone
All until the story's ready
Keep it steady, and the beat will come
On and on
