The Ascent Of Everest Dark, Dark My Light lyrics

Long before the eye can see
There's a path that runs into the deep long
Long before your lips move to speak
There's a look you give when you look at me
Follow the daughter
She's a widow to desire
You cannot sleep your way out of this one
You cannot dream your way out of here

You know
You know
You already know

Long before the sparrow falls

There's a wind that knows and lifts them all
Long before your lips move to speak
There's a look you give when you look at me
Long before your lips move to speak there's a sign
A light that moves behind your eyes
Long before your lips move to speak

Who can see the signs and tell the future's course
The rise and fall
Who can see the signs and try to hold up the mountain or hold back the tide
