David Wilcox - (You Were) Going Somewhere Lyrics

I saw you just the other day
I watched you walk a little way
You vanished 'round the corner
When I got there, you were gone

You might've heard me if I'd called
We could have spoken but I stalled
And let the moment slip
And in a moment it was gone

I saw you see but you did not see me
You were going somewhere

I saw you driving down the road
I waved at you, you never slowed
I watched you as the distance
Made you small and you were gone

A haze of dust rose on the air
Suspended for a moment there
It settled to the road again
It didn't last too long

I saw you see but you did not see me
You were going somewhere

Time was all I had but the timing was bad
When I looked your way, you neglected to stay

You were going somewhere

My timing's bad, your time's been sold
You're looking young, you're feeling old
You're looking straight ahead of you
I'm standing on the side

Silver spoon is tarnished old
Still you'll turn it into gold
Ambition's going to get you there
I hope you like the ride

You were going somewhere, you were going somewhere
You were going somewhere, you were going somewhere
You were going somewhere
