I've seen it with my own eyes   How we're getting otherwise   Without the luxury of leaving      The touch and feeling of free   Is intangible technically   Something you got to believe in      Connect the cause and effect   One foot in front of the next   This is the start of a journey      And my mind is already gone   And though there other unknowns   Somehow this doesn't concern me      And you can stand right there if you want      But I'm going on   And I'm prepared to go it alone   I'm going on   To a place in the sun that's nice and warm   I'm going on      And I'm sure they'll have a place for you too, ooh      Anyone that needs what they want   And doesn't want what they need   I want nothing to do with      And to do what I want   And to do what I please   Is first on my to do list      But every once in a while   I think about her smile   One of the few things I do miss      But baby I've got to go   Baby I've got to know   Baby I've got to prove it      And I'll see you when you get there      But I'm going on   And I'm prepared to go it alone   I'm going on   May my love lift you up to the place you belong   I'm going on      And I promise I'll be waiting for you, ooh      Don't follow me
