WHERE I AM GOING
(Jimmy Webb)
Glen Campbell - 1991
Feel like I'm coming out of the storm
Watching dark clouds drift away
Saying goodbye to all the pain I used to know
It's time to let it go
Just can't seem to make myself conform
To what the world wants me to be
But the difference doesn't hurt me anymore
I know they'll welcome me
Where I am going there will be no compromise
No tears will come to cloud my eyes
Where I am going
And all the precious world I've had to sacrifice
Will be given to me twice
Because He paid the price
And it's worth it all just knowing
Where I am going
Do you want to go riding with me
To a place that lasts forevermore
Please don't think that you are one among the few
I'm different just like you
Where I am going there will be no alibis
No might-have-beens or sacrifice
Where I am going
And all the questions still unanswered in my mind
Lord, I'll leave 'em all behind
I'll only find the answers
I'll only keep on going (Keep on going)
Where I'm going
(Where I am going) There will be no compromise
No tears will come to cloud my eyes
Where I am going
And all the precious world I've had to sacrifice
Will be given to me twice
Because He paid the price
And it's worth it all just knowing
Where I am going
(Where I am going there will be no alibis)
Where I am going
(Where I am going)
(And all the precious .......FADE)
