Going, Going, Gone

I’ve just reached a place

Where the willow don’t bend

There’s not much more to be said

It’s the top of the end

I’m going

I’m going

I’m gone

I’m closin’ the book

On the pages and the text

And I don’t really care

What happens next

I’m just going

I’m going

I’m gone

I been hangin’ on threads

I been playin’ it straight

Now, I’ve just got to cut loose

Before it gets late

So I’m going

I’m going

I’m gone

Grandma said, “Boy, go and follow your heart

And you’ll be fine at the end of the line

All that’s gold isn’t meant to shine

Don’t you and your one true love ever part”

I been walkin’ the road

I been livin’ on the edge

Now, I’ve just got to go

Before I get to the ledge

So I’m going

I’m just going

I’m gone
