TAKIN’ THE GOOD WAY HOME

from the Ascending Music CD ‘Moment Of Truth’
Now I know that I should keep my cool
Play the game by all the rules
And not behave like a simple fool
But that's just not my style
'Cause the dawn is up and the wind is free
On the road out to Eternity
There's so many things to do and be
That make it all worthwhile
Because it's time for takin' the good way home
Feels so fine singing today, takin' the good way home
Well, long ago I was so confused
Thought my life was all paying dues
But it turns out I had just refused
To listen to my heart
When it told me I could come to find
The love we need by being kind
Got to leave the shades of the past behind
Make a brand new start
You see, it's time for takin' the good way home
Sweet as wine, laughing today, takin' the good way home
Now these changes keep right on rolling
As they make our dreams come true
You know, that spirit keeps right on growing
So I’ll pass it on, pass it on, pass it on to you
Yes, our hearts and minds are open wide
As we honor Truth in Peace and Pride
Can you feel the rush of the turning tide
That brings us all awake
We’ve got Life to live and Love to share
As we build a world beyond compare
The seeds are planted everywhere,
To grow for goodness' sake
Come on, it's time for takin' the good way home
Let it shine, bright as the day, takin' the good way
Laughin' today, takin' the good way
Singin' today, takin' the good way home
