Going On

I've seen it with my own eyes

How we're gettin' otherwise

Without the luxury of leavin'

The touch and feeling of free is

Untangible technically

Something you've got to believe in

Connect the cause and effect

One foot in front of the next

This is the start of a journey.

And my mind is already gone

And though there are other unknowns

Somehow this doesn't concern me.

And you can stand right there if you want

But I'm going on

And I'm prepared to go it alone

I'm going on

To a place in the sun that's nice and warm

I'm going on

And I'm sure they'll have a place for you too oohoohoo

Anyone that needs what they want, and doesn't want what they need

I want nothing to do with

And to do what I want

And to do what I please

Is first of my to-do list

But every once in a while I think about her smile

One of the few things I do miss

But baby I've got to go

Baby I've got to know

Baby I've got to prove it

And I'll see you when you get there

But I'm going on

And I'm prepared to go it alone

I'm going on

May my love lift you up to the place you belong

I'm going on

And I promise I'll be waiting for you
