Wounded Doves

Like a wounded dove brought to its knees Confined to the ground, I see the summit through the trees Like a wounded dove torn at the wings Trapped in this cage, I see the summit through the trees They say this endeavour is a waste of my time 'This world will grind you down just as I' The world will shake, my grip could slide I'll find the highest peak, I'll soar the sky so high Keep me singing, keep me high Where I can see true beauty for a lifetime I'll keep on, I'll keep on Give it all I've got I'll walk upon the ridges of this mountain top Eyes to the skies, hands stretched high Where I can see beauty for a lifetime Like a wounded dove brought to its knees Confined to the ground, I see the summit through the trees Like a wounded dove torn at the wings Trapped in a cage, I see the summit through the trees My body lies broken, the journey lies subdued Keep me singing, dress my wounds We see the summit, we are the wounded doves You can't keep us from the clouds above I'll keep on, give it all I've got I'm walking on the ridges of this mountain top Eyes to the skies, hands stretched high Give me your hands, we are alive Keep me singing Keep me high We are young And we're alive
