And so with the explorers on my heels
I started to wheel
Stepped aside stone walls, I was sick of it all
And so I set my sail on your coattails and your warm shawlUp where there's an everlasting arm
Sends us out alone
Moves us out of harm
Ever-reaching always sweepingAnd though I struggled to take my place
There stood my mistake
Standing there like some great big theater curtain
Who knew for certain, I'd come down on you softlyUp where there's an everlasting arm
Sends us out alone
Moves us out of harm
Ever-reaching always sweepingUp where
Up whereBy and by the gates swung wide
Loved ones came in sight
Stormin' down the street like
Puerto-Rican kids in a summer rainBreaking open the hydrants and going insane
And going insaneUp where there's an everlasting arm
Sends us out alone
Moves us out of harm
Ever-reaching always sweepingUp where there's an everlasting arm
Sends us out alone
Moves us out of harm
Ever-reaching always sweepingUp where
Up where
Up where
Up where
