Before I Go Lyrics - Singles - Christopher Cross

I look out on the city lights 

The guarded streets below 

I marvel at my history 

The things that I don't know 

Just another question 

A shadow on my soul 

Will there be time 

Will there be time before I go

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

I left home in a hurry 

Off to see the world 

Then I played some music 

Then I loved a girl 

Someone called me papa 

Took my breath away 

Would I be fine 

Would I be alright with just today 

Will there be time enough for me before I go 

Love without rules 

Love without end 

Sending a lofty prayer for peace out on the wind 

Breaking the curse 

Breaking the chain... 

Making a promise I won't have to make again 

Photos 

I look out on the city lights 

The stories that they tell 

And wonder at my destiny 

Beyond this carousel 

Such a hollow question 

A tether frayed by fear 

Will there be time 

Time to let go while I'm here 

Will there be time enough for me so I'll know 

Will there be time enough for me before I go
