Kate Evans: Music/Lyrics

A long way down
It’s a long way down from here
I got no wings and I can’t see the stairs

But heaven and earth it’s all the same
Here there is no grace, there is no blame
And I feel you
Tell me, tell me what’s your name?

I’ve stood at your door
But I never had the stones to knock before
And now I see that there’s an opening
And I’m trying to walk on through

'Cause heaven and earth it’s all the same
Here there is no grace, there is no blame
And I feel you
Tell me, tell me what’s your name?

I didn’t know what I’d been missing
Until I opened up my arms to you
And I guess I never learned my lessons
And I never learned to play by their rules
To be a good cynic
And never make eye contact
And be the one to hurt someone before he hurts you
And never say I love you first
And always to assume the worst
I never learn I never learn
I never learn I never learn
I thank you, God, that I never learned to shut you out

A long way down
It’s a long way down from here
I got no wings and I can’t see the stairs

But all is quiet across the land
And I feel your love, I feel your hand
And I feel you say be still and know I am
I am
I am
I am
It’s a long way down but you won’t fall
It’s a long way down but you can stay
It’s a long way down be still and know I am
