lyrics

well the truth is, I don’t really know what the truth is anymore.
You put it out there, watch it go.
Soon no telling where it’s gone, but it is.

Gone, gone away, to better pastures
or back here one day

Move it on, see it through
means more to me I guess, than it does to you.
Taken away by the pull of the shore
where one day the tide calls for you

gone, gone away, close your eyes
maybe see a better way

Well you sit waiting for that big surprise,
biding your time, while the others know the joy of the fruit beheld.
Well you can have what you want, you can have it all.
Just be sure it’s what you need, before you bring it home to me.

Gone, gone away, tomorrow’s another day
Open your eyes, before it’s too late...

...before I’m gone away, to better pastures, better shores.
Better open your eyes, before I close that door.
Open your eyes.
