Leaving The Past Behind

I'm putting on my walking shoes

Please help me find my hat

It's time that I was leaving

Got no time for looking back

I'm going away yeah

Feeling fine

When it's time to go

You gotta leave the past behind

When I look outside my window

It's as dark as it can be

But I know the Son is coming

To wake the world from sleep

I'm going away going away

Feeling fine

And when you follow where He leads

You've got to leave the past behind

Man is born to trouble

Everybody got the blues

People looking for an answer

People wishing for good news

So if you know the answer

There is one thing you must do

You must tell them what you know

And you must live a life that's true

Harmonica and guitar

Aoww man is born to trouble

Everybody's got the blues

People praying for an answer

People hoping for Good News

So if you know the Answer

There is one thing you must do

You must walk

You must talk

You must hurry up to beat the Clock

You must tell them to get ready

So they can leave the past behind

Well my circle is completed

I've got to travel on

So if you understand

Don't talk about me when I'm gone

I'm going away I'm going away

I'm feeling fine

89 is really 99

I'm going away going away going away

Island in the sky is number nine

I'm going away going away going away

I'm feeling fine

Well it's a good good feeling

When you leave the past behind yeah

I got to start another circle

Got to leave the past behind

I'm going away

You won't see me for a while

I gotta do some things

I gotta walk an extra mile

But I'll see you in the

City of the lost angels
