maya kuper & paul mccomas - hand over hand (reprise) lyrics

Loading...

hand over hand, i ascend in a land of soil that p-sses for stone
progress is slow, and all that i know is how much remains to be known
hunger and thirst become bad, become worse as the shadows around me grow long
but the pangs are for naught, for all that i’ve brought are my body, my spirit, my song

and i’m miles from a friend or a phone, and the wind up here chills to the bone
i could turn back, retrace every track, and still be no closer to home

day after day, over earth, over clay, i keep moving, a woman possessed
night after night, i await morning light and the chance to continue this quest
mile after mile, entranced all the while by these badlands, half heaven, half h-ll
climb after climb, i grow stronger each time, but never as strong as the spell

and sometimes my prospects seem poor, for each peak that i reach leads to more
how can your search ever come to an end if you don’t know what you’re looking for?

hand over hand, i ascend in a land where nothing is set in stone
progress is slow, and all that i know is how little can ever be known
hunger and thirst are more blessing than curse: they remind me that i’m still alive
so i struggle and try, but the summit’s so high, it’s not certain i’ll ever arrive

and i’m miles from a friend or a phone, but i’m equally far from alone
if the foundation beneath me gives way, god give me faith, god give me strength
if the foundation beneath me gives way, god give me faith in my own, in my own, in my own, in my own
