The Goin' On - Sonny Landreth

Nightfall

Spill the cross

While you’re pouring out the language

Used to bear the soul

Well you move me, with a delivery

Of sheer intent

I swear, Dave, you never mad a lick of sense

I can see when looking back

I wouldn’t know this and we hadn’t done that

Ain’t no vibe to the great unknown

It’s all a part of the goin' on

Standing there with the same suitcase in your hand

That I helped you pack way back when we shared the plan

To bail out those flooded banks to higher ground

But old view did not include your leaving town

Goin' on

Past the home of yesterday

But I will keep to that promise we made

To embrace both the laughter and the pain

And let tomorrow tend to the rest of the way

Goin' on

Goin' on
