You've come this far 

Followed each

And every star 

Not to reach

The peak would seem so wrong

Your eyes look tired 

Want to sleep

Although this climb's 

So steep

We must keep pressing on



Down it's the only way down

It's the only way down

Down it's the only way down

It's the only way down



I've heard you sing 

Quiet voice

Of adverse things

Now you've made the choice

To overcome

This mountains' spire 

Towering

Below the summit

Cowering

You've seen how others clung



Down it's the only way down

It's the only way down

Down it's the only way down

It's the only way down



You've come this far

Along this wind

Around this bend

Now look at where you are
