Jeff Tweedy explained the meaning and origin of this song in a 2016 interview with Red Ee Chicago:

On and On and On Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On and on and on, we'll stay together, yeah
On and on and on, we'll be together, yeah
You and I will try to stay together, yeah
On and on and on, we'll be together, yeah
[Chorus]
Please don't cry, we're designed to die
Don't deny what's inside
On and on and on, we'll stay together, yeah
On and on and on
On and on and on
[Verse 2]
One day we'll disappear together in a dream
However short or long our lives are going to be
I will live in you or you will live in me
Until we disappear together in a dream
[Chorus 2]

[Outro]
On and on and on, we'll stay together, yeah
On and on and on
On and on and on
You and I will stay together, yeah
You and I will try to make it better, yeah
