jane siberry - caravan (live) lyrics

[verse 1]
o it was a snowy night
and the caravan traveling across the desert land
the stars were hanging heavy
in the absence of light
and you were there and i
and something in our hearts
told us to keep on moving
’cause there was something about
something about that
that star…

[verse 2]
how far is the nearest place to kneel?
and how far is the nearest throne?
oh how far, oh how far can you go with only a dream?
with only a hope?
you take the vision and you, you hold it steady
right ahead of you
across the ranges across the plains
the desert land. oh the gaze of, the gaze of strangers
that is how…
hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
hold it steady
hold it steady
[verse 3]
o there was always someone who would
take the children and keep them entertained within the caravan
there was always someone who would
lay down their work to play the children’s games
and there was always someone who would
know how things worked
they’d say… there. where?
they’d say… over there

[verse 4]
o and now as we sit on the steps
at the side of the square
there are three wise men sitting in their chairs
and if anyone wants to know
which way any of us should go
they will hold, they will contain
they will cup the refrain
hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady
take the vision
hold it steady, hold it steady
right ahead of you, right between the eyes
hold it steady
never to the left, never to the right
straight ahead of you
hold it steady
hold it steady
hold it steady
that is how
[verse 5]
it was a snowy night and our caravan
moved along through this yet unholy land
you were there, i was there
two desert boys + we did not understand
we did not understand
we only knew that something grand
was happening + that star + that night

[outro]
thank you.
