And it dawned on me to get moving on and on
To where I don't know anyone
And no one knows me and all of life is a possibility

I swear I tried to the best of my ability
I can't put my finger on exactly what was killing me
But at my back there is a wind that's chilling me unless I keep moving on

So I'm gone
I'm off to wherever my feet take me
And I know that I feel so much safer here out on the road
Out here all alone

Where every new face is a brand new mystery
And every rounded bend is another beginning
And none of my ghosts they can keep up with me
When I hit the highway road

So children go while you still can while you're young
They won't understand
No they won't not in this lifetime
But love them all the same

All apologies are a waste of energy
Because no one seems to understand the misery
Of not being able to find yourself
When there's no one else at home

And it dawned on me to get moving on and on
To where I don't know anyone
And no one knows me and all of life is a possibility

It's a possibility
It's a possibility
