Time to Go

[Story] Cheerful, the boy opended his eyes His cheeks were hot He wiped his tears and pulled his blanket up under his chin The rainbow brightened and swooshed from side to side It doubled in size and overtook the room, coloring the walls and bedspread [Chorus: Aloe Blacc] Ask me where I'm going I'll tell you where I've been Ask me who I am And I'll say that I'm your friend Ask me what I'm doing I'll tell you I don't know Just trying to live through life And now it's time to go [Verse 1] Back when I was just a kid I used to think the world was big But really it ain't that big at all (Not at all) Foreign lands in far away Until I learned the truth one day In reality, the world's quite small (World so small) I wanted to sail across the sea To find another place to be Where I could live so happily Well that would be the life for me I wanted to fly the sky so vast In a Jet-plane travelling fast Looking out the looking glass Watching the clouds go past [Chorus] Ask me where I'm going I'll tell you where I've been Ask me who I am And I'll say that I'm your friend Ask me what I'm doing I'll tell you I don't know Just trying to live through life And now it's time to go [Verse 2] I've been high and I've been low Seems like everywhere I go Is a place I could call home (Home sweet home) Yesterday is in my shadow And today is a new battle Tomorrow's the great unknown (Great unknown) Got my tickets, bags are packed Full steam ahead no turning back The smoke is white, the coal is black The engine's pushing off this track Ship is setting sail again It's just me against the wind Where loneliness is my old friend Who comes to visit now and then [Bridge] A time will come for all of us To test that element of trust To climb aboard that final bus That turns our ashes into dust [Chorus] Ask me where I'm going I'll tell you where I've been Ask me who I am And I'll say that I'm your friend (Ask me what I'm doing I'll tell you I don't know Just trying to live through life And now it's time to go)
