End Of The Beginning

I won't say goodbye, I'll just say so long
A time for leaving, a final farewell song
And I'm gone
There is somethin' that I need to do
Somethin' that I need to do alone
I have to go and find myself again
I lost the part of me out there on the road

So don't bury my heart
'Cause it's not over
Don't bury my heart when I leave
Nothin's written in stone
Nothin' is forever
It's the end
But it's the end of the beginnin'

I won't say goodbye, I'll just say someday
Another season, I'll come back this way again
There are pieces that are left on the ground
I have to go back and gather them in
If I don't do it, I can't live with myself
And put them all back together again

So don't bury my heart
'Cause it's not over
Don't bury my heart when I leave
Nothin's written in stone
Nothin' is forever
It's the end
But it's the end of the beginnin'

I heard that there's a man out there far away
He can reach into the sky and touch your soul
He may behold the key, then I'll come back
And take you in my arms
And never let go

So don't bury my heart
'Cause it's not over
Don't bury my heart when I leave
Nothin's written in stone
Nothin' is forever
It's the end
But it's the end of the beginnin'
It's the end of the beginnin'
