NAME:
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to, do you know?
Do you get what you’re hoping for?
When you look behind you there’s at the open door
What are you hoping for, do you know?
Once we were standing still in time
Chasing the fantasies that filled our minds
You knew how I loved you but my spirit was free
Laughing at the questions that you once asked of me
Do you know where you’re going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to, do you know?
Now looking back at all we planned
We let so many dreams just slip through our hands
Why must we wait so long before we see
How sad the answers to those questions can be?
Do you know where you’re going to?
Do you like the things that life is showing you?
Where are you going to, do you know?
Do you get what you’re hoping for?
When you look behind you there’s at the open door
What are you hoping for, do you know?

Going to expresses future actions.
The future form with going to is made with a subject+present tense of the verb to be+(am, is, are) + going to + main verb.
Ex: She is going to work on Saturday. (She will work on Saturday).
For the negative form, just add not after the verb to be.
Ex: She is not going to travel on her vacation. (She will not be traveling on her vacation.)
With the interrogative form, just invert the verb to be and insert it at the beginning of the sentence.
Ex: Is She going to come to our party? (Will she come to our party?)
