lyrics

It’s been coming to this
It’s come to a point
Now I’m almost over
I can’t hold it anymore
It’s time to
Let it fall on down
And hear the final score
I’m letting you know

I’ve been burning inside
I’m turning inside
I’m so sharply focused
I can’t get the facts out straight
I’m holding on
I’m doing poorly
Guess we all can’t make the grade
I’m letting you know.

It’s been a long, hard climb
I almost didn’t make it up that hill
I’m setting it straight
You’ve been my resting place

I’m leavin’
I’m letting you know
I’m leavin’
I’m letting you know

I’ve heard it before
Now I’ll hear it again
And I’ve got to go
Before the call is gone
It pulls me on
I’d like to stay and love you but
Time has set a date
And I’m letting you know

You’ve brought me along
You’ve showed me my life
And I’m grateful for the times
They meant so much to me
I’m trying just to show you
Now if you could only see
I’m letting you know

It’s been a long, hard climb
I almost didn’t make it up that hill
But I’m setting it straight
You’ve been my resting place

I’m leavin’
I’m letting you know
I’m leavin’
I’m letting you know
I’m leavin’ I’m leavin’

Now I’m going on down the line
Moving on ahead
You know
I’ll never be back this way again
It’s goodbye
