Climb (Live 2024) lyrics by Tori Amos

Intro
„Uh oh… Come on, you can do it! You can do it! You can do it, get up there. Come on, friend. Oh… I guess we gotta do it again.”
Doesn’t matter, doesn’t matter
Doesn’t matter if you catch a thorn on your ankle
You gotta climb high
Just get over the wall, but
Always happens again, always happen again
Always happens again, always happen again
So you stop bothering
You stop bothering
You stop bothering getting over the wall
You stop bothering
You stop bothering

Interlude

Verse 1
„Climb over the church wall,” he said
„You can feed the koi in the pond
Climb over the church wall in your Sunday dress
Be sure to feed the koi in the pond”
It’s a long, long climb going back in timе

Chorus
All of me wants to be, beliеve
That the angels will find me, Saint Veronica
All of me wants to be, believe
Somehow you will save me, Saint Veronica

Verse 2
He said, „Kneel before your judges in reverence
The penance for the woman you’ll become
You knew if you talked there’d be consequence
Your sentence for the woman you’ll become”
Ten days of hell in Satan’s cell

Chorus
All of me wants to be, believe
That the angels will find me, Saint Veronica
All of me wants to be, believe
That somehow you will save me, Saint Veronica

Bridge
Dream of dimensions
Then cross through the veil to them
Wrap yourself in linen holding Jesus close
Holding Jesus close
Calling Saint
Calling Saint
Calling Saint
Saint Veronica

Verse 3
„Climb out of the belly of the beast,” she said
„Become a witness out of the abyss
The temple of the soul will have to heal the flesh
Only when you’re whole can you forgive
But it’s a long, long climb
It’s a long, long climb”
