Little Ellen - The Climb Lyrics

Well if I could only get it right
I would sell this sleepless soul
Wide awake in the dark of night
Where do I go?
When you're kneeling at the mountain base
And you don't know where to face
That's the climb baby
I tell you it's the climb
It's like screaming and there's no-one there
Just your echo in a bouncy tune
That's when hope comes creeping in
Just to keep you in an endless loop
If I had the chance I'd sell you my immortal soul
I would trade it for some quiet and a ring of gold
So when I'm on top
When I'm up there
How do I get down?
Why do I care
And I never should have looked down
Never checked to see how far I've come
Now I'm shaking in my nightgown
On the edge hanging on
Only I can see just how far I've come
I'm still climbing I'm still holding on
To the edge of the mountain
In this endless climb
You're the winner in a losing game
And the only way of getting down
Is to rid yourself of guilt and blame
And sink slowly to the ground
If I had the chance I'd sell you my immortal soul
I would trade it for some quiet and a ring of gold
So when I'm on top
When I'm up there
How do I get down?
Why do I care
It's the climb baby
I tell you it's the climb
Keep on climbing baby
Put your shoes on
