And you know I can't take you with me
And time ain't gonna stop today
‘Cause I'm going away
I've been away for so long
The tears that you're crying
And time ain't gonna stop today
When I get back home, back home to you
The life that I'm living is so unforgiving
‘Cause I'm going away
And time ain't gonna stop today
But I hope that you're waiting for me
I feel like I'm so far away
But I hope that you're waiting for me
When I get back home, back home to you
But I hope that you're waiting for me
‘Cause I'm going away
And you know I can't take you with me
But I smile as I turn the page
‘Cause I'm going away
And you know I can't take you with me
I know that you're dying
I know it's heartbreaking
And you know I can't take you with me
I know that you're dying
I fall to my knees and pray
The time that I'm taking
A dream and a song away
But my dream keeps calling
But I'll never do you wrong
But I hope that you're waiting for me
I got on the plane to L.A.
My heart is falling
The tears that you're crying
‘Cause baby, I'm coming home
This world ain't gonna get down on me
And time ain't gonna stop today
