pilgrimage to paradise - ian & sylvia lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
while walking slowly down upon my lonely road one day
the dust did bite my eyes, and i could not find my way
my destination faintly gleaming far beyond my weary eyes
i continued on my pilgrimage to paradise

[verse 2]
i continued on my journey to a place i’ve never been
with no assurance it would be there, save a glimmer in the night
that flashed and flitted fitfully among my waking dreams
i continued on my pilgrimage to paradise

[verse 3]
i met travelers upon the way who could no longer stand
i offered them refreshments and stretched out a willing hand
not that they would not or they could not, they just did not understand
how painful was my pilgrimage to paradise

[verse 4]
now, my own feet they are bleeding, and my tongue is parched and dry
i called to a fellow traveler but he did not heed my cry
did i run too far ahead or did i lag too far behind
upon my painful pilgrimage to paradise?

[verse 5]
some people speak of pastures where the milk and honey flow
i have no such illusions of the place i want to go
but with bleeding blisters on my feet, no friendly shade in sight
is it worth the painful pilgrimage to paradise?
