yesterday when you were young
everything you needed done was done for you
now you do it on your own
but you find you're all alone, what can you do?

you and me walk on, walk on, walk on
'cause you can't go back now

you know there will be days
when you're so tired
that you can't take another step
the night will have no stars
and you'll think you've gone as far
as you will ever get

you and me walk on, walk on, walk on
'cause you can't go back now

and yeah, yeah, yeah you go where you want to go
yeah, yeah be what you want to be
if you ever turn around, you'll see me

i can't really say
why everybody wishes they were somewhere else
but in the end, the only steps that matter
are the ones you take all by yourself

you and me walk on, walk on, walk on
yeah, you and me walk on, walk on, walk on
'cause you can't go back now
walk on, walk on, walk on
you can't go back now
