Further in, grandmother; grandfather, hold my hand As I go on through this life and try to understand The beauty of your faces I will never see again But I know you're with me now leading me further in Further in, you friends of mine, they led me further in I know I've hurt you many times and I've helped you and I will again You to me and me to you, and us to all of them The circle that will ever grow as we go further in Further in, O my love, take me further in Past the place where love hides its face and down to where we begin So deep in this mystery, my tears on yours depend And they like some wild river flow as we go further in
