How many times have we fallen in the pit
How many times have we been afraid, have we gone hungry
How many times have we promised ourselves to keep moving forward
filling baskets, leaving the mud
Until then I have asked you to
set me free, return me to the meadow
return me to the sun, return me to the light, return me to the grain
Extraordinarily capable
of making that normal into something special
A fleeting love, a deciduous leaf
A path to the moon, made of stars
What pride to share this fight with you
What pride to feel you close when I'm so far
How many times have we won the fight
How many times have we followed tears, have we followed the ocean
How many oceans and how many oceans
How many waters, how many hands
Let's go outside, you will see a thaw
Let's find ourselves now, let's walk one step at a time
We'll be the light, we'll be the song, we'll be the sickle
Extraordinarily capable
of making that normal into something special
A fleeting love, a deciduous leaf
A path to the moon, made of stars
What pride to share this fight with you
What pride to feel you close when I'm so far
