[Verse 1]
Steadily climbing, I can't see far ahead
Each step I've taken has been the same
Trying to please one and finding I can please none
Oh, what can there be to gain?

[Chorus]
Climbing and climbing
It seems there is no end
I think I've seen this view before
This view being no view
I can't see much new
In climbing anymore

[Verse 2]
Step by step and keeping up the pace
Hoping it's not all in vain
Trying to do good and trusting that I should
Reach what I'm trying to obtain

Striving so hard and moving so slow
Hard to remember what's below
Am I climbing down?
I could be turned around
Often feel like letting go
[Chorus]
Climbing and climbing
It seems there is no end
I think I've seen this view before
This view being no view
I can't see much new
In climbing any more

[Chorus]
Climbing and climbing
It seems there is no end
I think I've seen this view before
This view being no view
I can't see much new
In climbing any more
