A Long Way Up

Carrie Newcomer

Here in the great unraveling,
So much of this is baffling.
When breathing feels like gambling,
Nowhere to go but here.
Things come together then fall apart.
We gather up our broken hearts,
And endings are just a place to start,
And so we start again.
We're gonna climb this ladder rung by rung.
We're gonna count our blessings one by one.
It's gonna take a little grace and luck,
Cause baby it's a long way up,
Baby it's a long way up.
When the days are short and the stars align,
We live in time outside of time,
Slow dancing as the new moon shines,
With you humming in my ear.
We're gonna climb this ladder rung by rung.
We're gonna count our blessings one by one.
It's gonna take a little grace and luck,
Cause baby it's a long way up.
Baby it's a long way up.
Last night my dog sat barking at the world.
Yesterday I heard the wild cranes pass.
Morning came creeping in at dawn
Like amber on the frosted glass.
Mud sat up and looked around
And wondered at the world it found.
'Til 'ventually the mud laid back down,
Smiled and said amen.
We're gonna climb this ladder rung by rung.
We're gonna count our blessings one by one.
It's gonna take a little grace and luck,
Cause baby it's a long way up.
Baby it's a long way up.
Baby it's a long way up.
