Life was a heartache and now I am finally free
This is not the place I'm supposed to be
All I ever wanted, all I ever wanted was
Before I do, just one more look at you
Everybody knows there ain't no such thing
But down here in reality
All I ever wanted, love and the peace and the harmony
Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me
So I know that I gotta go
On and on and on I've searched
Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon
But down here in reality
Life was a heartache and now I am finally free
Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon
What I'm lookin' for is not here on earth
What I'm lookin' for is not here on earth
Life was a heartache and now I am finally free
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me
I can't stand, I can't take no more
Ain't nobody there tryin' to take from me
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me
So long everybody, Mama don't be sad for me
I can't stand, I can't take no more
So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
When they ask, "Are you truly free?" I'd say, "Yes, truly"
So long everybody, I have gone beyond the moon
Life was a heartache and now I am finally free
On and on and on I've searched
And it's clear, it's obviously
Don't know where I'm headed, hope I see you someday soon
It's worth the stay, but I'll meet you later at that better place
This is not the place I'm supposed to be
Just to be, to live and shine, when I get ready I up and fly
When I walk over to my money tree
All I ever wanted was, all I ever wanted was
And I can't remember none of the things that I want to forget
It's the best satisfaction no less, ask if I'm free and I'll say, "Oh yes"
And it's clear, it's obviously
Everybody knows there ain't no such thing
So I know that I gotta go
