There Lyrics
It's a long day
A long way into your arms
A long, long, get up, get up
Through a snowy yard
And I think you will see me coming under the sky
And I think you will see me coming
And open your arms wide
To be there, be there
To be there
It's a long day
A long way into your arms
A long, long looking forward
Through a straining eye
And I think you will see me coming under the sky
And I think you will see me coming
And open you arms
I try
To be there, be there
To be there
And all the clouds are weary whales
Swimming by to find you
And I'm sorry, sorry how, how slow my steps are
Slow as hours
To be there, be there
To be there where you are
To be there where you are
A long way into your arms
A long, long, get up, get up
Through a snowy yard
And I think you will see me coming
And open your arms wide
To be there
A long way into your arms
A long, long looking forward
Through a straining eye
And I think you will see me coming
And open you arms
I try
To be there
Swimming by to find you
And I'm sorry, sorry how, how slow my steps are
Slow as hours
To be there where you are
To be there where you are

She really has some talent. A great lyricist. Just splendid really. Absolutely splendid.
to me this song, like wonder of birds, is also a looking forward and a longing to ascend to heaven... to be with God.. but again i believe it can be more open that that....
