Yes, it's now the day that I walk away;
You can say that our time has come. 
But there's a joy in my heart; I must make a new start;
Darling, this is good-bye, but I will never lose our love.

​

You've been good to me; all you could to me;
Isn't anything I would change. 
But the future's out there, one of caring and prayer;
I must walk it alone, and, babe, I know it must seem strange.

 

Wasn't what I planned;
TRY TO UNDERSTAND;
Only then will you see what this means to me.

He's calling to me:
"Be a man for me!"
Now I must answer the call to go and serve.
 
Wasn't what we planned; 
TRY TO UNDERSTAND;
Just let time help you trust what I'll be for us.

He's calling to me:
"Be a man for me!"
Now I must travel the road to where I'm bound.
Now I must answer the call to higher ground.
