4Him - When It's Time To Go lyrics

rate me

Nothing new in this old town<br />

The sun comes up and heads back down<br />

Working hard from dawn to dusk again<br />

Seventeen and a heart for a change<br />

The byways calling out his name<br />

But not yet<br />

There's too much goin' on<br />

'Cause daddy needs a hand and mama's<br />

Tender heart might crumble to the ground<br />

Though they'd understand<br />

He felt like saying<br />

(CHROUS)<br />

When it's time to go<br />

You've got to let me go away and face the world<br />

Say goodbye, say goodbye<br />

Cry some tears, don't worry<br />

When I hit the city I'll build you a house right down the street from mine<br />

Have some faith in me and I'll show you why<br />

Some years later lare one night<br />

He came in tryin; to dry his eyes<br />

He realized what he was born to do<br />

He said I'll always be your son<br />

And I know you know what's goin' on<br />

It's the hardest thing to think of leavin' you<br />

But this world needs a hand and I've got<br />

Just the thing they need to make it through<br />

It's so clear to me though I know what's coming<br />

(Repeat CHROUS)<br />

And as they tore His flesh like animals<br />

There were those I know who felt Him say<br />

When it's time to go<br />

You've got to let me go away and save the world<br />

Say goodbye, say goodbye<br />

Cry some tears, don't worry<br />

When I hit the city I'll build you a house right down the street from mine<br />

Oh, have some faith in me and I'll show you why
