Where You're Going

, We all own a rough piece of history That we’d like to remain a mystery About lessons learned and ugly words Bridges burned and we can’t return To the house of love in the cloud of dust You can throw the book on all of us It’s clear as mud when you’re young and dumb Can’t outrun; what’s done is done It’s not where you’ve been What’s up ahead there’s no way of knowing It ain’t where you been It’s where you’re going Sitting out underneath the old lamp post When you came creeping out of your window We were tempting fate with our late night date Come around third base headed for home plate When the front porch light came screaming on And your daddy ’bout tore the screen door down Saying move along; can’t be wrong Say so long, and we get far gone It’s not where you’ve been Keep moving on when the wind is blowing It ain’t where you been It’s where you’re going Don’t carry your bags to the end of the line Just drop them off and enjoy the ride The road may go high and low; stone by stone () Fast or slow It’s not where you’ve been No looking back, there’s no signs of slowing It ain’t where you been It’s where you’re going It’s not where you’ve been What’s up ahead there’s no way of knowing It ain’t where you been It’s where you’re going Where you’re going Ah yeah
