Jane Siberry - The Valley lyrics

rate me

I live in the hills

you live in the valleys

and all that you know

are these blackbirds

you rise every morning

wondering what in the world

will the world bring today

will it bring you joy

or will it take it away

and every step you take is guided by

the love of the light on the land

and the blackbird's cry

you will walk

you will walk

you will walk in good company

the valley is dark

the burgeoning holding

the stillness obscured by their judging

you walk through the shadows

uncertain and surely hurting

deserted by the blackbirds

and the staccato of the staff

and though you trust the light

towards which you wend your way

sometimes you feel all that you wanted

has been taken away

you will walk

you will walk

you will walk in good company

I love the best of you

you love the best of me

though it is not always easy

lovely? lonely?

you will walk

you will walk

you will walk in good company

the shepherd upright and flowing

you see...
