1. Going There Alone

Just get a grip I tell myself
You’re not doing very well
Oh, ya see it’s not like me
ta feel this way

Tell ‘em I’m going ne’er  knowing
what lies ahead no future showing
She’ll only cry for a little while
but, she stays

And I can feel her staring at me through the window
But my head is traveling through worlds unknown
I’ll miss those starry eyes that once lit up my highway
I’m going my way now and going there alone

A few more years then I’ll return
Sweep up that girl I had ta burn
We’ll do some catching up on life
Checking out our change in style

I’ll say some Daddies have ta leave
while little girls stay here and grow
You’ve always been here in my heart
with all the love I have ta show

And I can feel her staring at me through the window
But my head is traveling through worlds unknown
I’ll miss those starry eyes that once lit up my highway
I’m going my way now and going there alone

This old place doesn’t look the same
it’s cold and dark and dampening 
so hollow, where is everything?
An article screaming my name

My little girl, my unknown world
What have I done? Oh God she’s gone!
Her finger prints still on the sill
I just stood still, I JUST STOOD STILL!

And I can feel her staring at me through the window
But my head was traveling through worlds unknown
I’ll miss those starry eyes that once lit up my highway
Yea, I went my way now, I’m standing here alone

God, I can feel her staring at me through the window
But my head is traveling through worlds unknown
I’ll miss those starry eyes that once lit up my highway
I’m going my way now and going there alone
Going there alone
