Where 'Er I Go

It’s all behind me and I’m on my way

Like the mountains before me, that seem to say,

You’ll climb to the top, only to see

There’s more in the way, forever there’ll be

But don’t you know how you feel inside

They’re there to be conquered, and there’s still one more to climb

And before me one more grows

Where ‘er I go,

Where ‘er I go

 

So many people on the road like me

So many people and they long to be free.

Still I watch from the distance and stay far behind

I let them go their way, then I’ll go mine

But don’t you know how you feel inside

Don’t you long for an arm open wide?

You know I’d love to let it show

Where ‘er I go,

Where ‘er I go

 

You know they’re a lot like both me and you

You know that they’d like someone to help them through

Still, they turn to the heavens looking for someone to admire

Then they’ll turn to their God, wondering where you are.

But don’t you know how you feel inside

Where have you hidden, when there’s no place left to hide?

But somewhere deep inside you’ll know

Where ‘er I go,

Where ‘er I go
