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
