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 am going
  I am going
  I am gone.
    I am closing the book
  On the pages and the text
  And I don't really care
  Of what happens next
  I am just going
  I am going
  I am gone.
    I been hanging on threads
  I been playing it straight
  Now I've just got to cut loose
  Before it gets late
  So I am going
  I am going
  I am gone.
    Grandma said, "Boy, go and follow your heart
  And you'll be fine at the end of the line
  All that's gold doesn't shine
  Don't you and your own true love ever part"
    I been walking the road
  I been living on the edge
  Now I've just got to go
  Before I get to the ledge
  So I am going
  I am just going
  I am gone.
