I'll see my mother again I knowI see her everywhere I goSometimes I see my father too Pourin' over blue prints that he drew He made his way with sweat and brains So I could ride this first class train While I didn't even know where to Only knew it wouldn't be long Always movin' on, always movin' on Always movin' on Sing a song about the big ship goin' down Grandma cried, grandpa too Then we went to town To get some ice cream, see a picture show Come back and take a swim in the lake's moon glow Well, I knew then there were no watery graves Just tears and laughter and moonlight on the waves Then the cryin' of the mornin' loon Pretty soon summers' gone Always movin' on, always movin' on Always movin' on My wife's mama lyin' in a dyin' bed They've anointed her with oils and some words are being said Somethin' about the soul bein' present eternally Does that mean I'll be seein' you, babe Would you be seein' me? Twilight's dimmin' down another day Been some moments I didn't wanna let slip away As if they wouldn't, as if I couldStay in a place where time just stood Like wood and steel in a watery grave No tears, no laughter, no moonlight on the waves Well, there's no place like that, it's true Right here's where you and I belongAlways movin' on, always movin' on Always movin' on, always movin' on, yeah Always movin' on, always movin' on
