Jimmy Wayne - Where You're Going lyrics

rate me

<BR>

When I was in college my class went on a trip to a place down the road where the county kept delinquent kids.<br>

An old man with a badge said to the class "And here we have all kinds of trash."<br>

I could not believe what I just heard, at first I wasn't gonna say a word. <br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus:]</i><br>

It's not where you been, it's where you're going. It's not who you were back then, it's who you are at this moment.<br>

Kinda like looking at an old photograph, remembering way back when.<br>

It's not where you been, it's where you're going. <br>

<br>

I said "Excuse me, sir. I know you won't remember me. But try to imagine how I looked when I'd just turned 15.<br>

Defiant, scared, and confused, dirty clothes and tattoos, nothing really left to lose.<br>

You see the last door on the right? Sir that door used to be mine." <br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus:]</i><br>

It's not where you been, it's where you're going. It's not who were back then, it's who you are at this moment.<br>

Kinda like looking at an old photograph, remembering way back when.<br>

It's not where you been, it's where you're going. <br>

<br>

We all have a story we can tell. Some's been lost, some hurt, some of us have been through hell.<br>

Well the past is a ghost, a door that's been closed, the start of a winding road.<br>

And I know without a doubt, that doesn't matter now, cause... <br>

<br>

<i>[Chorus:]</i><br>

It's not where you been, it's where you're going. It's not who you were back then, it's who you are at this moment.<br>

Kinda like looking at an old photograph, remembering way back when.<br>

It's not where you been, it's where you're going. <br>

<br>

It's where you're going. <br>

It's where you're going. <br>

Where you're going. <br>

Where you're going. <br>

Oh yeah... <br>

Where you're going.<br>

<BR><BR>
