Marching On

[Verse 1]
Grandma told me I look just like you
Flawless, strong and fragile like a dove
I wondered will I grow to be as tall as you were to me
You were perfect, bathed me in your love

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I was young, now I know sometimes you cried alone
I've learnt the world isn't black and white
When you made me look away
I know you never meant to hurt me

[Chorus]
You kept marching oh-oh-oh-on

[Verse 2]
A faded picture of you at my age
A candid smile I hardly recognise
When you close your eyes at night
Do you dream of your past life
I never know what's going through your mind

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I was young, now I know sometimes you took the plunge
Those nights you prayed, you were terrified
You'd say go figure it out
Darling, no one knows the answers

[Chorus]
You keep marching oh-oh-oh-on
You keep marching oh-oh-oh-on

[Bridge]
Sometimes I wonder if I was born as your reincarnation
But I could never be like you
I'm a child without patience
Did you mean that
Did you mean that
When you told me
That I'm your dream

[Chorus]
You keep marching oh-oh-oh-on (Ohh)
You keep marching oh-oh-oh-on (Ohh)
You keep marching oh-oh-oh-on (Ohh)
You keep marching oh-oh-oh-on
You keep marching oh-on

[Outro]
You keep marching on
Ohh
