Lyrics:

On and on it seems to go
But when it's gone it's gone
You're always getting caught
Day late and dollar short
But it's okay

On and on it seems to go
When all the lights are yellow
And it's hard to build a home
When you summer's not your own
And you like it that way

Honest is the photo
With steely eyes that seem to show
The recent memories
Are worked in filigree

Of all the things to choose between
Like 'liberty' and 'honesty'
You know I'm dead at the wheel
'Cause I'm learning to feel no pain

Sticky nights twisting the knife
The good times maybe ruined my life
Would I choose another calling
Just to see your wooden floors again?

And this times hung around for years
By design or default it isn't clear
Left behind by so many years
You can run to the land of the rising sun but eventually
Love finds another way

'Cause on and on it seems to go
But when it's gone it's gone
And I don't mind
If you're alive
'Cause I'll be dead at the wheel learning to feel no pain
