Will someone tell me where I've been going wrong'
Will someone tell me how deep forgiveness runs'
How many times must I come to this conclusion'
It's time that I should be moving along.

Will someone say, what is the purpose of
My constant striving, my seeming lack of love'
My head held high, to hide my disappointment.
It's time that I should be moving along.

'Oh, my son, where are you going'
Oh, my son, I have been waiting here.
Don't you know I will always take you back'
It's time that we should be moving along.'
