Ascending
© 2004 Kyra/Heart Ray Music/BMI

two of us together, journey hand in hand
beckoned to the mountain, a pilgrimage to a sacred land
and climbing up the mountain, hearts beating like a drum
wind whipping ?round our faces, but we were warmed by the sun

there was no one that we could see for miles around
and still we were not alone
the prodigal ones awakened, returning home ? we were ascending

*Higher and higher, higher and higher, higher and higher
We were climbing
Higher and higher, higher and higher, higher and higher

pondering the mysteries of the universe, on a wilderness high
the eagle above us soars in upward flight, without ever questioning why

we were laughing like children in a nursery rhyme
filled with an innocence that transcended time
we were young and free and eager to be ? ascending*

we were touched by the mountain magic
could see the stars beneath our feet
we knew we would never be the same
the transformation was complete
we were ascending

solo

and in the stillness we could hear
ancient voices becoming clear
on a rock we laid, we were on our way ? we were ascending

chorus and ad libs out
