When I Get Where I’m Going Songtext
von Brad Paisley feat. Dolly Parton

When I get where I′m going
On the far side of the sky
The first thing that I'm gonna do
Is spread my wings and fly

I′m gonna land beside a lion
And run my fingers through his mane
Or I might find out what it's like
To ride a drop of rain

Yeah, when I get where I'm going
There′ll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years

And I′ll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah, when I get where I'm going
Don′t cry for me down here


I'm gonna walk with my grand daddy
And he′ll match me step for step
And I'll tell him how I missed him
Every minute since he left
Then I′ll hug his neck

Yeah, when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
I will shed the sins and struggles
I have carried all these years

And I′ll leave my heart wide open
I will love and have no fear
Yeah, when I get where I′m going
Don't cry for me down here

So much pain and so much darkness
In this world we stumble through
All these questions I can′t answer
And So much work to do

But when I get where I'm going
And I see my Maker′s face
I'll stand forever in the light
Of His amazing grace


Yeah, when I get where I′m going
Oh, when I get where I'm going
There'll be only happy tears
Hallelujah
I will love and have no fear

When I get where I′m going
Yeah, when I get where I′m going
