One Stone At A Time

I’ve wandered far away through many shades of gray So many turns and twists, it seems I’ve lost the road. I took my share and ran. I had no back up plan. It all slipped through my fists and now I must admit I’d like to drop the load but where am I to go? How do you move a mountain that’s standing in your way? It’s too big to go around, it’s too high to climb. You have to do what must be done. What more can I say? How do you move a mountain? One stone at a time… They say there’s no return until the lesson’s learned And you can cry and moan and whine that it’s not fair. I’d like to disagree. We’re all meant to be free. It’s in our blood and bones. We’re made for going home. And breathe familiar air if we will only dare… How do you move a mountain that’s standing in your way? It’s too big to go around, it’s too high to climb. You have to do what must be done. What more can I say? How do you move a mountain? One stone at a time… It’s just through sweat and tears, a habit made in years That leads you back to home, that long and lonely road If you would one day fly, right now you work and cry And you no longer roam but learn how to atone And lift the heavy load to go where you must go… How do you move a mountain that’s standing in your way? It’s too big to go around, it’s too high to climb. You have to do what must be done. What more can I say? How do you move a mountain? One stone at a time…
