His bags are packed again He'll be two weeks gone Goodbye is never easy Even one night feels long Wrapped in his arms My tears stain his sleeve Holding me close he said You must know this before I leave I will be going I take you with me I will be going It's how it's meant to be I will be going But I won't be too far Because my heart will always be Where you are He's all grown up now Our precious baby boy Eighteen years of love Our hearts never knew such joy He's ready to move on It's what we prepared him for But we couldn't know this feeling As he stood at the door and said I will be going
I take you with me I will be going It's how it's meant to be I will be going But I won't be too far Because my heart will always be Where you are As she laid in the bed I held her hand in mine Doctors came and went The clock on the wall clicked time Her breath slowly fell And in her eyes I could see The time had come And she softly whispered to me I will be going I take you with me I will be going It's how it's meant to be I will be going But I won't be too far Because my heart will always be Where you are Where you are
