Caravan (Live)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] O it was a snowy night And 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 on moving 'Cause there was something about Something about that That star [Verse 2] How far is the nearest place to kneel? And how far is the nearest throne? Oh how far, oh how far can you go with only a dream? With only a hope? You take the vision and you, you hold it steady Right ahead of you Across the ranges, across the plains The desert land. oh the gaze of, the gaze of strangers That is how Hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady Hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady, hold it steady Hold it steady Hold it steady [Verse 3] O there was always someone who would Take the children and keep them entertained within the caravan There was always someone who would Lay down their work to play the children's games And there was always someone who would Know how things worked They'd say "There. Where?" They'd say "Over there" [Verse 4] O and now as we sit on the steps At the side of the square There are three wise men sitting in their chairs And 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, hold it steady, hold it steady Take the vision Hold it steady, hold it steady Right ahead of you, right between the eyes Hold it steady Never to the left, never to the right Straight ahead of you Hold it steady Hold it steady Hold it steady That is how [Verse 5] It was a snowy night and our caravan Moved along through this yet unholy land You were there, I was there Two desert boys—we did not understand We did not understand We only knew that something grand Was happening—that star—that night [Outro] Thank you
