I want to run one direction and leave everything behind
Turn and wave from a sun setting on the ghosts in my life
'Cause she said she didn't miss me the last time that I was gone
Now the road is never ending and I don't know where I belong

It's anywhere but here

I've got to keep moving forward

The romance of far off countries will keep this city from swallowing me
It's dark and dirty streets are so dimly lit,
Where possibilities are not forgotten & the rain keeps falling down
Wherever it is that I am going, we'll meet in a crowd

In the streets of Mexico

I've got to keep moving forward

I'll sell all that I own
I'll stow away in a plane or a boat
To celebrate the dead and finally escape this rain
When I finally make it I'll send you a postcard (on it will be written)
"I never wanted to hold you back, I only wanted you in my arms"

In the streets of Mexico

I've got to keep moving forward
