The path up to summit looks just like a hand-drawn line
I don’t know what up there, but I’d like to go see
I’ll be gone a long time, lover so will you climb with me?
I’ve been looking at an ocean that I’m curious to sail
Way out where the water crashes and the sea birds wail
I don’t know what’s out there, but I’d like to go see
I’ll be drowned should I fail, lover so will you sail with me?
I’ve been looking at a steam train that I’m curious to ride
My ticket to the world runs on a steel line three feet wide
I don’t know what’s out there, but I’d like to go see
Well I can’t stay inside, lover so will you ride with me?
There’s so much world to see
And I’d love your company
Seems a shame to stay at home
It seems a shame to be alone
So if you take the road down out of sight around the bend
Or whether you sit in your chair, death’s waiting in the end
So let’s go there, let’s go and see
I’ll be gone a long time, lover so will you climb
I’ll be drowned should I fail, lover so will you sail
Well I can’t stay inside, lover so will you ride with me
