They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul. A voyager, ad a settler, they both have a distant goal. If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside. Well, it really doesn't matter as long as I can tell myself I've always tried. Like a roller in the ocean, life is motion Move on Like a wind that's always blowing, life is flowing Move on Like the sunrise in the morning, life is dawning Move on How I treasure every minute Being part of it, being in it With the urge to move on I've travelled every country, I've travelled in my mind It seems we're on a journey, a trip through space and time And somewhere lies the answer To all the questions why What really makes the difference Between all dead and living things, the will to stay alive Like a roller in the ocean (la la la la la la-la) Life is motion (la la la la la la-la) Move on (la la la la-la) Like a wind that's always blowing (la la la la la la-la) Life is flowing (la la la la la la-la) Move on (la la la la-la) Like the sunrise in the morning (la la la la la la-la) Life is dawning (la la la la la la-la) Move on (la la la la-la) How I treasure every minute (la la la la) Being part of it (la la la la) Being in it (la la la la) With the urge to move on The morning breeze that ripples the surface of the sea The crying of the seagulls that hover over me I see it and I hear it But how can I explain The wonder of the moment To be alive, to feel the sun that follows every rain Like a roller in the ocean (la la la la la la-la) Life is motion (la la la la la la-la) Move on (la la la la-la) Like a wind that's always blowing (la la la la la la-la) Life is flowing (la la la la la la-la) Move on (la la la la-la) Like the sunrise in the morning (la la la la la la-la) Life is dawning (la la la la la la-la) Move on (la la la la-la) How I treasure every minute (la la la la) Being part of it (la la la la-ah) Being in it With the urge to move on La la la la la la-la, la la la la la la-la, la la la la-la Like a wind that's always blowing La la la la la la-la La la la la la la-la (life is flowing) La la la la-la (move on) Like the sunrise in the morning La la la la la la-la La la la la la la-la (life is dawning) La la la la-la (move on) How I treasure every minute (la la la la) Being part of it (la la la la-ah) Being in it With the urge to move on La la la la la la-la, la la la la la la-la, la la la la-la Like a wind that's always blowing...
