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´m going
I´m going
I´m gone

I´m closin´ the book
On the pages and the text
And I don´t really care
What happens next
I´m just going
I´m going
I´m gone

I been hangin´ on threads
I been playin´ it straight
Now, I´ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
So I´m going
I´m going
I´m gone

Grandma said, “Boy, go and follow your heart
And you´ll be fine at the end of the line
All that´s gold isn´t meant to shine
Don´t you and your one true love ever part”

I been walkin´ the road
I been livin´ on the edge
Now, I´ve just got to go
Before I get to the ledge
So I´m going
I´m just going
I´m gone
