Before I Go Lyrics

Before I Go lyrics

I look out on the city lights

The guarded streets below

I marvel at my history

The things that I don't know

Just another question

A shadow on my soul

Will there be time

Will there be time before I go



I left home in a hurry

Off to see the world

Then I played some music

Then I loved a girl

Someone called me papa

Took my breath away

Would I be fine

Would I be alright with just today

Will there be time enough for me before I go



Love without rules

Love without end

Sending a lofty prayer for peace out on the wind

Breaking the curse

Breaking the chain.....

Making a promise I won't have to make again



I look out on the city lights

The stories that they tell

And wonder at my destiny

Beyond this carousel

Such a hollow question

A tether frayed by fear

Will there be time

Time to let go while I'm here

Will there be time enough for me so I'll know

Will there be time enough for me before I go
