Our Old Promise
Journey of Enduring Promises: Estelle Bajou's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
I am footsore and weary
I am tired and worn out from walking
But I travel to meet a friend
Despite my fatigue, I continue my journey to meet a friend
The way is long and dreary
The path is lengthy and depressing
But I know it soon must end
However, I am aware that this challenging journey will soon conclude
I'm bound by our old promise
I am bound by a commitment made in the past
What can break that golden chain
What can break this strong and valuable connection?
Not the lightning flashing silent
Not even the silent lightning, thunder, or rain
Or the thunder or the rain
I'm traveling fast like a whirlwind
I am moving rapidly, like a whirlwind
And though I creep so slowly on
Despite my slow progress, I am advancing
I'm drawing nearer and nearer and nearer
Approaching closer and closer to the destination
And the journey's almost done
The journey is almost completed
If I could go back I'd run
If I could turn back time, I would run
Tell you all the good things to come
Share all the positive things that are to come
That though no eyes may see it
Even if no one can see it
I've toiled through sunny woodland
I have worked hard in bright and sunny woodlands
Over fields that basked in light
Across fields bathed in light
Through the lone paths in the forest
Through lonely paths in the forest
I have crept through dead of night
I have moved stealthily through the darkness of the night
If I could go back I'd run
If I could turn back time, I would run
Tell you all the good things you done
Tell you about all the positive things you have done
Run to your door once more and beat it like
Run to your door once more and knock loudly like a drum
A drum
