Pull Me Up One More Time
Once we had
All we wanted
Nothing more
Than to take good care
But have I lingered too long, sister
And your light knows it?
A child raised
but not grown
We heard the robin
Sing his song
He's a hunter
He has thrown his arrows
Pull me up one more time
Pull me up one more time
For I have fallen
Pull me up one more time
Pull me up, be there beside me
'Cause there I know
I've held the fingers
To pull me up one more time
When I have fallen.
