Don't wrap it up in gold
Don't hide it behind the sun
Just give it to me as it is
And let it stand
Don't fly it like a kite,
Between the clouds
It needs no excuse, just bring it down
Let eyes that are in pain look upon it
In all its glory
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short
And it will pass
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short,
And it will pass
For every voice that is lifted, in reverence and pain
Show us now,
And let love not be chained
We should feel what we can stand, and let us be alive
So we know
That we've done, all we we can
Let hearts that are frozen get to see
In all its glory
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short
And it will pass
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short,
And it will pass
And let all that is lost be forgotten
And it will pass
So let all that is lost be forgotten
Let us move on
Like the waters and the open sea
When tribulations come all we can say is hopefully
And yesterday you could probably say there's no hope for me
But today I'm overly dedicated,
I'm 'posed to be a testimony for broken hearts in the city
You either crash landing or planning on flyin' with me
Misery loves standing behind his company, well,
Vividly I can see that your feelings would like to dwell
On our past encounters, reaching over the counter
Told me that it's appealing to pop a pill, that's a downer I heard emotions burn deep
I heard when you fall out of love, the drop is steep
I heard when you see a dove, that's what you try be
Got these burdens under my wings but I'm still free
'Cause I can make the decision to let it all go away
Before I ever run astray, I'll look you in the eye and say
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short
And it will pass
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short,
And it will pass
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short
And it will pass
Let us move on,
Let us move on
For this is short,
And in the past
And in the past
