Oysterband - Moving On lyrics

We walked these streets together Now we walk these streets alone We asked the man for justice Well, he handed us a stone In this great land of freedom We are taking up the slack We pushed the stone to the top of the hill And we watched it rolling back CHORUS And the way to Hell is straight and sure The way to Heaven is long The way to your heart is never-ending So I just keep movin' on Movin' on, movin' on The way to your heart is never-ending So I just keep movin' on The brave are twisting in the wind Stupidity endures And men with no identity They try to borrow yours Danger is the lure for boys To help you now and then But they fall from the wire in a Bay of Pigs And don't come round again CHORUS I never felt myself alone Or truly felt afraid Until the hour I understood By friends we were betrayed Whose precious mouths are stopped with food Who cannot meet our eyes Who laugh about their principles And brush 'em off like flies CHORUS
