Intro
Verse 1
The House Is Quiet Now,
The Old Clock Fills The Room
I Watched Your Leave That Morning
With The World Inside Your Eyes
Verse 2
You Carried All Your Questions
And A Road You Had To Find
I Wanted To Say I Loved You,
But The Words Stayed In My Throat
Sometimes Fathers Hold Their Feelings
Like A Letter Never Sent
Verse 3
I Remember Small Beginnings,
Little Footsteps On The Floor
A Child Reaching For My Hand
Who Doesn't Need It Anymore
Verse 4
And I Know You Have To Leave Me,
Every Bird Must Learn The Sky
But A Father Never Stops Watching,
Even After Sons Can Fly
Chorus
Go Wherever Life May Take You,
Go Beyond These Fields And Hills
Take The Courage I Once Gave You,
And The Lessons Time Instilled
Verse 5
If The World Should Ever Break You,
If You Wonder Where You're From
There Will Always Be A Light On,
Waiting For You To Come Home
Verse 6
The Years Became Much Faster
Than I Ever Thought They'd Be
Now Your Voice Is Growing Older
And I Hear A Part Of Me
Chorus
Go Wherever Life May Take You,
Go Beyond These Fields And Hills
Take The Courage I Once Gave You,
And The Lessons Time Instilled
Verse 7
If I Could Change The Years Behind Us,
I'd Speak More And Fear Less
I'd Trade The Pride For Simple Words
And Tell You, I Was Blessed
Chorus
Go Wherever Life May Take You,
Go Beyond These Fields And Hills
And If Someday You Remember,
Know That I Remember Still
Verse 8
When The Road Becomes Too Lonely,
When You Don't Know Where To Run
There Will Always Be A Light On,
Waiting For You To Come Home
The Old Clock Keeps On Ticking,
The Light Is Still On
