Where 'Er I Go
Words and Music by Mark Edwards
© August 1976
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
