I been sitting here
considering the times
Looking for the difference
between what's yours and mine
I know the lines are blurred
I know it's happened all before
I know it all 
But I'm reaching Lord
 
I found a door opening
I didn't make it in time
Maybe it'll open up
For someone next in line
Maybe the time has passed
Maybe there's still time left to board
Maybe that's why
I'm reaching Lord

Can we afford to pay attention
Can we do two things at once
Can we bring down 
What we try to rise above
I'm open to the ending 
Coming faster than before
I'm open to it all
But I'm still reaching, Lord 


They brought me in for questioning
I did the best i could
They pounded on the table
Said son, give up the goods'
They offered me no water
That bulb swung on its chord
Just above my head 
Oh I was reaching Lord 

I been reading Joy Harjo
I been reading Annie Proulx
I been doing anything 
That I can think to do
Anything to give myself
A light I can move toward
Anything at all
Oh I'm reaching Lord

Can we afford to pay attention
Can we do two things at once
Can we bring down 
What we try to rise above
I'm open to the ending 
Coming faster than before
I'm open to it all
But I'm still reaching, Lord 

When it flashes in your heart
When you feel it welling up
When you feel that first spark
You know you'll never get enough
When you look back to count 
What you couldn't afford 
It's all just so much
So I'm reaching Lord
