Distance To Go
We have traveled far
With so far to go
In a land of hurt
Our culture we must sow
We have traveled so far
With so far to go
Leaving love behind
Our hearts hang so low
Like a tree without sun
Like a tree without rain
We have so far to go
Our spirit is broken
Our pride is amiss
We seem to be stagnant
A touch, without a kiss
So far down we have gone
To get back what we had
I wish we could have known
These weeds we have sown
Our love so far gone
For us to have traveled so far
Like a seed in the air we've been blown
Reborn, we must
Or we surely turn to dust
A memory in time
History, so sublime
We have so so far to go.
