On The Way
On the Way Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know the words “once upon a time” don’t lie!
Or "happy ever after” don't make me cry
Don’t you dare give me any more of those pathetic lies
For a little time I missed you but you think this is enough 
To bring me down and change my way
Love has gone away 
Because I need something more than fate
And now I’ll go ahead, and you can do the same
This is the only way to reach the desire in your heart
There is nothing you can change from miles away 
There is nothing you can find in this way
I chose the right way and you the left 
Driving both were dreams come true
The clouds are not hurting in the sky anymore
Finally I just had to let her go (Let her go)
And live my time from another point of view
And I will just be on my way (On my way)
Because there comes a time 
When people should go their separate ways
There is nothing you can change from miles away 
There is nothing you can find in this way
I chose the right way and you the left 




driving both were dreams come true
the clouds are not hurting in the sky anymore
