Verse 1 : 
                                
The time has come, you're really leavin' 
                            
You always told me that you wanted to 
                                
I guess I never thought it would happen 
                        
I guess I never really wanted it to 
                         
The world is callin' you and you must answer 
                             
But you can take me with you in your dreams, and

Your sister told me you were working 
                      
At some office out in ( tensil town ) - I'm not sure about that word :) 
                                 
But don't forget about those who love you 
                            
They'll be there for you if you get down 
                    
I believe in you in all you after 
                              
I hope you end up where you wanna be

Thirty years now have gone by quickly 
                          
I still think of you from time to time 
                            
My wife died early, I've got children 
                  
I'm happy and my health is fine 
                         
I often wondered if you found your freedom 
                         
I sometimes wonder if I should have gone 
 
Refrain ( 2 times ) : 
                       /
