Up

to go beyond

written to “To go Beyond” on Enya’s album "the celts"

 

my momma told me how grand things would be

when I’d find my equal, to live out eternity

how could I know this would take so, so long back then?

 

and now as sit with this window in sight

now to go beyond it ...

is it wrong or is it right?

 

but without all our effort

we’ll never know

the direction we should go
