When you were up the hill
And I was down the road
You came down to meet me
But I was gone
When you were down today
And I left you stranded
There's nothing left to say
And so it goes
It goes on
It goes on
The clouds they block my eyes
And I can't hear a sound
And all this heavy mist
Is making us delirious
And we're too young to pray
But when we're old and grey
We'll come back all the way
And see what we missed out
The boy from this white land
For ever will remain
So long to those who came
Farewell to those who stand
I woke up this morning
And heard the wind howling
It was meant to feel that way
So it goes on
It goes on
It goes on
