Waiting at the street light, ready to cross the white line,
Yeah, I push my foot down to the floor; it just may be the last time,
Dodging bullets, like a target on a firing line,
And I can't slow down 'til I touch the ground,
When this place, that I call home, becomes a faraway land,
Yeah, then the saviour comes to take me, take me by the hand,
And my feet touch down on solid ground.

I've got this feeling in my heart - that's when I'm ready to depart.

Glory bound, and I won't touch down 'til I'm on the ground,
Glory bound, and I'm on my way to a better day.

Headed for a big ride, and I know right where I'm going,
Like a soldier headed for the battle line, gonna lay it down,
And I won't slow down 'til I touch the ground.

I must be ready for the day when I can turn and walk away.

Glory bound, and I won't touch down 'til I'm on the ground,
Glory bound, and I'm on my way to a better day.

I've got this feeling in my heart - that's when I'm ready to depart.

Glory bound, and I won't touch down 'til I'm on the ground,
Glory bound, and I'm on my way to a better day.

And now I'm glory bound,
Oh, oh, whoa,
Take me by the hand,
