Where I'm Going

My parents left home when I wasn't born yet
Took a long ride watching as the sun set
Over all the places that life still grew
Never could forget what they always knew
Talk about the ways they would save up to take trips
Listen to the waves on the beach, that's her favorite
When my sister came, I had someone else to play with
Feel like it was destined, giving me a best friend (Yeah)
And the only thing that makes sense to me right now
Is life moves fast, barely ever slows down
Been around the way, ready for another day
Answering the questions that I wanna find out
Like, why do we act like we're all on our own?
What is the purpose of being alone?
Why do we hurt like we're searching for love?
When will we see enough is enough?

When I get to where I'm going
When I get to where I'm going, going, going
When I get to where I'm going
When I get to where I'm going
That's the place I'm gonna stay

They say life is just a journey
Destinations are the same
So much time and space between us
Don't forget how far we came
Don't get lost in all the silence
It can echo to the grave
When I get to where I'm going
We'll never be too late
Come on home
So come on home
I can almost see you, hear you, touch you
So come on home
Come on home
No matter what we've been through, I will always love you
I'll be on my way, I know I've got you by my side
I'm grateful, thank you, April
My hazel eyes are open, focused, gotta hold on to this moment
Not everything is golden, doesn't mean it's not important

When I get to where I'm going
I know I won't turn away
Starry lights on the horizon
Shining brightly on my face
And though the road ahead is winding
Our footprints never fade
When I get to where I'm going
That's the place I'm gonna stay

When I get to where I'm going
When I get to where I'm going, going, going
When I get to where I'm going, where I'm going
When I get to where I'm going, going, going
When I get to where I'm going
