Move On Lyrics

[DOT, spoken]
Are you working on something new?

[GEORGE, spoken]
No.

[DOT, spoken]
That is not like you, George.

[GEORGE]
I've nothing to say

[DOT, spoken]
You have many things.

[GEORGE]
Well, nothing that's not been said

[DOT, spoken]
Said by you, though, George.

[GEORGE]
I do not know where to go

[DOT]
And nor did I

[GEORGE]
I want to make things that count
Things that will be new...

[DOT]
I did what I had to do

[GEORGE]
What am I to do?

[DOT]
Move on

Stop worrying where you're going—
Move on
If you can know where you're going
You've gone
Just keep moving on

I chose, and my world was shaken—
So what?
The choice may have been mistaken
The choosing was not
You have to move on

Look at what you want
Not at where you are
Not at what you'll be
Look at all the things you've done for me:
Opened up my eyes
Taught me how to see
Notice every tree—

[GEORGE]
Notice every tree...

[DOT]
Understand the light—

[GEORGE]
Understand the light...

[DOT]
Concentrate on now—

[GEORGE]
I want to move on
I want to explore the light
I want to know how to get through
Through to something new
Something of my own—

[DOT & GEORGE]
Move on
Move on

[DOT]
Stop worrying if your vision
Is new
Let others make that decision—
They usually do
You keep moving on

[DOT & GEORGE]
Look at what you've done Something in the light
Then at what you want Something in the sky
Not at where you are In the grass
What you'll be Up behind the trees...
Look at all the things
You gave to me Things I hadn't looked at
Let me give to you Till now
Something in return Flower in your hat

[GEORGE]
And your smile

[DOT]
I would be so pleased...

[GEORGE]
And the color of your hair
And the way you catch the light
And the care
And the feeling
And the life
Moving on!

[DOT]
We've always belonged together!

[DOT & GEORGE]
We will always belong together!

[DOT]
Just keep moving on
Anything you do
Let it come from you
Then it will be new
Give us more to see

The lyric is meant to connect with the earlier [songs] distantly, just the way the young George connects with his roots in the painting … If it works, if “Move On” feels like a satisfying and touching resolution as it does to me, it’s a tribute to my first pr...
