Recorded and released in 1977 as the 1st track, side two of the album “ABBA: The Album“
They say a restless body can hide a peaceful soul
A voyager and a settler, they both have a distant goal.
If I explore the heavens, or if I search inside
Well, it really doesn’t matter as long as I can tell myself
I’ve always tried.
Like a roller in the ocean
Life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that’s always blowing
Life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning
Life is dawning
Move on
How I treasure every minute
Being part of, being in it
With the urge to move on!
I’ve traveled every country, I’ve traveled in my mind
It seems we’re on a journey, a trip through space and time
And somewhere lies the answer
To all the questions “why“
What really makes the difference
Between all dead and living things
The will to stay alive
Like a roller in the ocean
Life is motion
Move on
Like a wind that’s always blowing
Life is flowing
Move on
Like the sunrise in the morning
Life is dawning
Move on
How I treasured every minute
Being part of, being in it
With the urge to move on!
The morning breeze that ripples the surface of the sea
The crying of the seagulls that hover over me
I see it and I hear it
But how can I explain
The wonder of the moment
To be alive, to feel the sun
That follows every rain?
Like a roller in the ocean
Life is motion
Move on...
