Rocky Trail

One more time

Let’s say you give me one more time

One last chance to speak again

Let’s start from what we left unsaid

And here we go

Brave enough to go climbing a wall

So high that no sunlight is seen through winter

Brave enough to go traveling around the world

Without money to eat or sleep for

Seeing what you can do with your hands and feet

I feel there is no question about it

Almost anything you can imagine

Almost any goal

You will get there

I wish you had been more of a talker

Not the kind that is just flapping his lips

And not the kind that looks away

But learns through his eyes when somebody is watching

Maybe you could have told me

There was a world on your shoulders that needed lifting

Maybe I could have helped you with that

The weight is not easy I know

But you never know

I thought your shoes were good

I thought they would take you to the end of any road

I thought your back was strong

I should have carried you to the top of the rocky trail

I should have carried you to the top of the rocky trail

How am I to know about your problems and your load

I am blind to what you show

I am waiting to be told

I never ask

How am I to know about your problems and your load

I am blind to what you show

I am waiting to be told

I never ask
