Barbara Dickson - The Climb lyrics

Out along the urban clearway Sending him the road he came Mayve he'll be someone someday Everyone will know his name Even if he learns the hard way Maybe it'll take some time Everywhere you've played is worth it When you've made the climb People in a smoky bar room Listen to the words he sings Wonder where the songs all come from Finger picking weary strings Gonna set his life to music Found a reason for the rhyme Waiting for the break The day he's gonna make the climb When will you lift your lift your eyes Burning skies are promising the dawn Forget the part you played in the masquerade And maybe a song will help you go on Met him at a late night party Heard him in the concert hall Saw him in a transport cafe Bought him at the record store Read him in the music papers Played him for the thousandth time And everybody said that finally He'd made the climb Somewhere on the urban clearway Someone sings his favourite song Guitar in a battered hard case Falling as he walks along Thanking him for inspiration Trying to complete the mind Walking in a dream and he Doesn't even see the climb When will you lift your eyes Morning skies are promising the dawn Forget the part you played in the masquerade And maybe a song'll help you go on Do, do, do, do......
