Before I Get There Lyrics - Bronze Radio Return

How long now have I been here? 

And how long will I stay? 

Got a little more work to do 

Before I'm on my way 

Tying all of my loose ends 

Still got debt to pay 

Picking up the pieces 

Before I'm on my way 

Before I'm on my way 

Before I'm on my way 

[Chorus:] 

Before I get there 

Before I show up 

Before I'm somewhere 

Before I grow up 

I'll be here taking in right now 'til I'm ready to go 

When my time comes along to move on then I'll already know 

I'll be ready to go 

All the coming and going 

I see it everyday 

But I got a little more work to do 

Before I'm on my way 

While I'm still here in the place I lay 

I'll be soaking up the moments 

Before I'm on my way 

[Chorus:] 

Before I get there 

Before I show up 

Before I'm somewhere 

Before I grow up 

I'll be here taking in right now 'til I'm ready to go 

When my time comes along to move on then I'll already know 

I'll be ready to go 

I do believe that the measure of a man 

Is the length he will go from the place he began 

And I remind myself as I walk across the land 

That the less I overstep means the more I understand 

[Chorus:] 

Before I get there 

Before I show up 

Before I'm somewhere 

Before I grow up 

I'll be here taking in right now 'til I'm ready to go 

When my time comes along to move on then I'll already know 

I'll be ready to go
