lyrics

The path that lies ahead of us is steeper and less kind than the old well-traveled road that you chose to leave behind. But I know if we set out now, the things that we could find could make it worth the effort, 'cause I know it’s worth the time.

And from way down here the mountain seems so high, from the bottom you can’t see the view. But even if the walk is hard I’ll try, as long as I am walking next to you.

If the storm clouds gather, turn the sky a scary shade of grey, and the cold rain soaks our clothing and puts puddles in our way, I’ll find a place for you and me to huddle up and stay, until the earth is dry again, another sunny day.

And from way down here the mountain seems so high, from the bottom you can’t see the view. But even if the walk is hard I’ll try, as long as I am walking next to you.

And when your feet they start to ache, and when your back’s about to break, you're slipping every step you take, just reach out your hand. I'll hold you up and stand you tall, make sure you never, ever, ever fall. You know I'll understand...

And from way down here the mountain seems so high, from the bottom you can’t see the view. But even if the walk is hard I’ll try, as long as I am walking next to you.
