Don't You Want To Be There Lyrics - Jackson Browne

Don't you want to be there, don't you want to go? 

Where the light is breaking and the cold clear winds blow 

Don't you want to be there in the golden glow 

Don't you want to be there, don't you want to fly? 

With your arms out, let a shout take you across the sky 

Don't you want to be there when the time's gone by 

Times there was love all around you 

Times you were strong and alone 

Times you believed love had found you 

And you fell through time like a stone 

And those you have wronged, you know 

You need to let them know some way 

And those who have wronged you, know 

You'll have to let them go someday

Don't you want to be there? 

Don't you want to cry when you see how far 

You've got to go to be where forgiveness rules 

Instead of where you are 

Don't you want to be there, don't you want to know? 

Where the grace and simple truth of childhood go 

Don't you want to be there when the trumpets blow 

Blow for those born into hunger 

Blow for those lost 'neath the train 

Blow for those choking in anger 

Blow for those driven insane 

And those you have wronged, you know 

You need to let them know some way 

And those who have wronged you, know 

You'll have to let them go someday

Don't you want to be there? 

Don't you want to see where the angels appear 

Don't you want to be where there's strength and love 

In the place of fear
