I wanna stay girl it hurts I know 

But the time has come to find my dreams of glory 

It hasn't been easy babe--hard times we know 

But I gotta know the ending of my story 

Oh it's my challenge, it's my right 

And my will's too strong to fight 

I don't wanna say goodbye 'cause I love you 

CHORUS 

But it's that time--that time of year 

To follow that midnite sun 

That time of year 

My ramblin' heart's gotta run 

Wherever it takes me I'll ride that wind 

To my rainbows end but I'll be back again 

I wanna hear you say it girl: that you understand 

If I had my wish you'd be by my side
