[Verse 1: Howie]
Only one life to live in
We're trying our best to make it through
(We're trying our best to make it through)
There's no mistakes just lessons
It's all about what they mean to you, oh yeah

[Pre-Chorus: AJ, Brian & All]
No matter what you've gone through
You can pick up the pieces move on with your life
Because we had to accept the wrongs
And try to make them right
It may be hard to look at yourself and see the truth
Baby, you've got to realize it takes time to become you

[Chorus: Nick & All]
So just get to moving' on
We're moving on
We're moving on
Living day by day everything must change
But in a way everything stays the same
Moving on, moving on

[Verse 2: Brian]
We'll take what you've been given
Got to take a chance while we can
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah
To find our place in our world
We had to understand the plan

[Pre-Chorus: AJ, Brian & All]
Just put the past behind you
Pick up the pieces move on with your life
Because we had to accept the wrongs
And try to make them right
Oh, oh, oh, you can
Look at yourself and see the truth
Realize it takes time to become you

[Chorus: AJ, Nick & All]
Oh, just get to moving' on
We're moving on (keep on moving on)
We're moving on
Living day by day everything must change
But in a way it's gonna stays the same
Always, never gonna change, moving on

[Bridge: AJ & All]
We know we've changed
But we're still the same
Getting closer to what we're supposed to be
As life goes on, you'll have your time
Because everything's meant to be
Oh, oh, oh, moving on
Moving on, moving on
Everything must change
But we're still the same, baby

[Chorus: All & (AJ)]
Moving' on
We're moving on, we're moving on
Living day by day, everything must change
But in a way everything stays the same
(Stays the same)
Moving on, moving on

[Outro: All]
Moving on, moving on
Everything must change
But we're still the same

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
