lyrics

I think I’m going somewhere but I really don’t know why
This empty road I’m traveling leads somewhere in the sky
The other travelers that I’ve seen were few and far between
Not many people like to climb this high

This road, it keeps on turning every night and day
Just when I think I’ve reached the top my hold slips away
Another night and day, my dreams they slip away

Each peak of curiosity keeps me climbing to the next
I feel compelled to climb until
I’ve reached my proper ledge

I only wonder why it seems, when I meet another mind,
I always feel it’s me who has to walk along the edge
I walk along the edge, I walk along the edge

This world, it keeps on turning every night and day
Just when I think I’m flying high my dreams slip away
Another night and day, my dreams they slip away

Well you’re going your way and I’m going mine
Two travelers on these rocky slopes
with separate peaks to climb

I only wish to sit beside you for a little while
Sharing words of courage and wise saddened smiles

And when I think of you I’ll always feel okay
And have the strength to keep on climbing
for another night and day
Another night and day, my dreams they slip away

This world it keeps on turning, every night and day
Just when I think I’ve found my place, my dream slips away
Another night and day, my dreams they slip away
