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)
