O - it was a snowy night |
|
The caravan traveling across the desert land |
|
The stars were hanging heavy in the absence of light |
|
And you were there and I |
|
And something in our hearts told us to keep moving |
|
Because there was something about that star |
|
That Star ... |
|
How far is the nearest place to kneel? |
|
How far is the nearest throne? |
|
How far how far can you go with only a dream? |
|
With only a hope? |
|
You take the vision and you hold it steady |
|
Right ahead of you across the ranges across the plains |
|
The desert land the gaze of strangers |
|
That is how ... Hold It Steady |
|
There was always someone who would |
|
Take the children and keep them entertained |
|
There was always someone who would |
|
Lay down their work to play the children's games |
|
There was always someone who would |
|
know how things worked |
|
They'd say ...THERE. Where? OVER THERE. |
|
And now as we sit on the steps |
|
at the side of the square |
|
There are three wise men |
|
sitting in their chairs |
|
If anyone wants to know |
|
which way any of us should go |
|
They will hold they will contain |
|
they will cup the refrain |
|
Hold It Steady - take the vision - Hold It Steady |
|
right ahead of you right between the eyes. |
|
THAT is how. |
|
O - It was a snowy night |
|
and our caravan moved along |
|
through this yet unholy land - |
|
you were there and I was there |
|
two desert boys - we did not understand |
|
we only knew that something grand was happening |
|
that Star ... that night |
