Long-Legged Journey

The mountains loom ahead And shake me to my core My body is so tired My spirit weak and sore Do you hear me call? I rage into the night No rest for the weary I doze at morning light I want to roll that boulder Up the hill once more I'm all tussled and tugged From those dreams that I tore I really need your strength For my legs cannot budge I'd go a little faster But I'm treading through sludge Lead me back to the path Through the briar and the thicket Does my journey continue? Then guess I'll buy a ticket
