And love is not the easy thing

The only baggage you can bring...

And love is not the easy thing...

The only baggage you can bring

Is all that you can't leave behind



And if the darkness is to keep us apart

And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off

And if your glass heart should crack

And for a second you turn back

Oh no, be strong



Walk on, walk on

What you got they can't steal it

No they can't even feel it

Walk on, walk on...

Stay safe tonight



You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been

A place that has to be believed to be seen

You could have flown away

A singing bird in an open case

Who will only fly, only fly for freedom



Walk on, walk on

What you've got they can't deny it

Can't sell it, can't buy it

Walk on, walk on

Stay safe tonight



And I know it aches

And your heart it breaks

And you can only take so much

Walk on, walk on



Home...hard to know what it is if you've never had one

Home...I can't say where it is but I know I'm going home

That's where the hurt is



I know it aches

How you heart it breaks

And you can only take so much

Walk on, walk on



Leave it behind

You've got to leave it behind

All that you fashion

All that you make

All that you build

All that you break

All that you measure

All that you steal

All that you can leave behind

All that you reason

All that you sense

All that you speak

All you dress up

All that you scheme
