Indigo Girls
Текст песни The Wood Song

The thin horizon of a plan is almost clear my friends and I have
had a hard time bruising our brains hard up against change all
the old dogs and the magician now I see we're in the boat in
two by twos only the heart that we have for a tool we could use
and the very close quarters are hard to get used to love weighs
the hull down with its weight but the wood is tired and the wood
is old and we'll make it fine if the weather holds but if the
weather holds then we'll have missed the point that's were i
need to go no way construction of this tricky plan was built
by other than a greater hand with a love that passes all our
understanding watching closely over the journey yeah but what
it takes to cross the great divide seems more than all the courage
i can muster up inside but we get to have some answers when we
reach the other side the prize is always worth the rocky ride
but the wood is tired and the wood is old and we'll make it fine
if the weather holds but if the weather holds then we'll have
missed the point that's where i need to go sometimes i ask to
sneak a closer look skip to the final chapter of the book and
maybe steer us clear from some of the pain that it took to get
us where we are this far but the question drowns in its futility
and even i have got to laugh at me cause no one gets to miss
the storm of what will be just holding on for the ride the wood
is tired the wood is old and we'll make it fine if the weather
holds but if the weather holds then we'll have missed the point
that's where i need to go
