Movin' on
firekid Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Packed up a couple things
handful of memories
better times we used to know
got a place for us to stay
closed doors and sink and sand
headed for the open road
we can fly away singin' ole glory
if your story starts with good as gone
guess we better get movin' on
Movin' on, Movin' on
Guess we better get movin' on
Oh, oh, oh...
Chase that horizon line
Lord, knows what we're gonna find
a patch of stars we've never seen
swim through the river wide
climb any mountain side
high ground so we can breathe
If you found the truth won't set you free
we can fly away singin' ole glory
if your story starts with good as gone
guess we better get movin' on
movin' on, Movin on
guess we better get movin' on
oh, oh, oh...
It takes more, more than faith to make our way to happiness
It takes more, more than faith to find a place where heaven is
We gotta keep movin' on
If you found the truth won't set you free
we can fly away singin' ole glory
if your story starts with good as gone
guess we better get movin' on
Movin' on, Movin' on
guess we better get movin' on
If you found the truth won't set you free
we can fly away singin' ole glory
if your story starts with good as gone
guess we better get movin' on
Movin' on, Movin' on
guess we better get movin' on
