Farthest Step (Battat/Amarante)

Just one step more, a certain step, the farthest step of all 

Though, any step is special, when you stand before a wall

 

I made an oath I plan to keep

I’m ready when you’d like to take the leap

I came to fight, I'll stay to lose 

If you tell me I can help you choose

Let’s rise to the close, I feel tested and true

I can’t bear the weight, but I could carry you

I'll give you every breath I take towards my farthest step, oh yes

The tower rose, we climbed the stairs and hardly feared to fall

But if we’re being honest, I climbed them at a crawl

 

I'm on the way, I step in stride 

And everywhere I go, I go with pride

I find my peace in pressing on

Precious is the path we walk upon. 


Let’s rise to the close, I feel tested and true

I can’t bear the weight, but I could carry you

I'll give you every breath I take towards my farthest step, oh yes

The end is known, no, it won’t be changed, the present stalls to steal

From where the story writes itself, the future doesn’t feel 

We found our way through breaks and bends,

I’m grateful we’re together in the end

Don’t fear a flood-- I’ll damn your Doom

The farthest step of all will now resume. 


Let’s rise to the close, I feel tested and true

I can’t bear the weight, but I could carry you

I'll give you every breath I take towards my farthest step, oh yes
