The, the, the, the, the
The, the, the
The, the, the
I was heading down to Spring Street
With a suitcase in my hand
And filled with love and life and grand delusions
/>I knew you'd understand
And I left you by the stairwell
And your eyes were wet with tears
Mother, you knew you had to let me go
Even after all these years
And we sang, it wasn't enough
And she said, it wasn't enough
And walk on, I'm not sure what to do
You're alright, I'm not sure what to do
And I found myself a new life< br/>And I've been living with some friends
And we hold on to dreams and live like kings
Like the days will never end
And I left him by the statue
And his eyes were filled with tears
Lover, you knew you had to let me go
Even after all these years
And we sang , na
And he said, we'll walk on
You're alright, that's it, that's it, that's it, that's it, that's it, that's it
And everything changes and friends become strangers
And what we hold so dear slips away
The past keeps on fading but I'll never forget you
It's hard to see that you're a part of me even when we have to say
I'm not sure what to do
And walk on
And we sing
You're alright , it's, it's, it's, it's, it's
And I moved out of the city
To start a family of my own
And when I look into my daughter's eyes
And I don't feel so alone
And as I walk her down to Spring Street
And she holds onto my hand
Mother, you knew my eyes would be wet with tears
And now I understand
And I said, please
Walk on, please
And thank you, please
(And thank you, please. walk on
Walk on
We're alright
We're alright
Walk on I'm not sure what to do)
You can hold on, I'm not sure what to do
