I go to the top of the mountain I recite each step I climb
All the hurts and the bumps and the bruises A moment is a long long time
Into the abyss of twilight I count each day in rhyme
Lost in the haze of wonder Tomorrow is a long long time
Love opens like a flower
Or she’ll cut you down in spite
And she’ll crush you with her power But she’ll take you to the light boys She’ll take you to the light
She’ll take you to the light boys
She’ll take you to the light
We treat life so fragile
In the sky we search for signs But the ego aint forever
A soul is a long, long time
Death opens like a flower
Or a grizzly running in fright
And she’ll crush you with her power But she’ll take you to the light boys She’ll take you to the light
She’ll take you to the light boys She’ll take you to the light
I’ll see you again up yonder As the veil of twine unwinds Stuck in a sweet salvation Forever is a long, long time
We all wither like a flower
And we’re all scared of the night It’ll crush you with its power
Oh but keep lookin for the light boys
Next time we’ll get it right She’ll take you to the light boys Take me to the light
