Higher in time
The mountain is steepthe ditches are deep
The task in handis making us weep
But here's a promise(I intend to keep
/
That I mean to keep)
Seed it in your mindand say it each night
Before you sleep:we will climb higher in time
(och!)You've got a head full of troubleand a ship to build
(You think you won't make itbut you know you will
You feel you need yourcup refilled
Fill it out of minewe'll drop the defenses,
Pool our skill
/
Your heart you're hidingit's making you ill
You feel like you want to have yoursporran refilled
Well, fill it out of minelet the soulful water
Overspill)and we will climb higher in timeI've been to the bottomI've been on the train
I've slept in the gutterwith my head in a drain
I've been brutally proudI've been mortally shamed
But this is not a crimeI'm just learning, my friends,
That it's all in the gameand we will climb higher in time
(Och!)Climb higher in timeclimb higher in time
