Jane Siberry The Valley lyrics

I live in the hills, you live in the valleys
And all that you know are these blackbirds
You rise every morning, wondering
What in the world will the world bring today?
Will it bring you joy or will it take it away?

And every step you take is guided by
The love of the light on the land and the blackbird's cry
You will walk, you will walk, you will walk in good company
The valley is dark, the burgeoning holding
The stillness obscured by their judging

You walk through the shadows, uncertain and surely hurting

Deserted by the blackbirds and the staccato of the staff
And though you trust the light towards which you wend your way
Sometimes you feel all that you wanted has been taken away
You will walk, you will walk, you will walk in good company

I love the best of you, you love the best of me
Though it is not always easy, lovely? Lonely?
You will walk, you will walk, you will walk in good company
The shepherd upright and flowing, you see
