The Ladder - Lyrics by Paula Cole


Lyrics

Climbing, climbing, climbing, climbing...

Look, at how futile this is,
I'm so weak, so fragile, so torn.
Going round and round, going inside
To the circle, to the ladder, to the sky

I am climbing a ladder of urgency
Climbing a ladder of hope
Climbing a ladder of my emotions
Climbing a ladder of unraveling rope.

You see, what you want to see,
But i'm not, what you wanted, no i'm not.
I am only one thing, one thing i see,
One thing i feel.

Chorus

Climbing...
I am only one thing, one thing i see, one thing i feel
I am the ladder.
