Hand In Your Worried Shoes
Got to stay steadfast when you're
On the trail at night
Keep that sunny river dale held
Steady in your sight
'Cause even if the homeland's ravaged
With no familiar face in sight
You'll need to see the plight, if you
Want to follow that light
I recall the painted dragon head
On their boat, coming 'round the trees
Its eyes aglow with cinnabar
Grinning fierce, and looking at me
We assembled on the bluff
Facing the enemy
They took everything
When you get there, child, you won't be seeing me
But if you trust the messenger
Whom I've sent out for you
Welcome. You're homebound
Hand in your worried shoes
But if you're not packed and ready
When the one I've sent arrives
You'll go on in a circle and sing
A song that can't be sung
See the wind drag Earth's children
Slowly up to shore
See the water beneath them
Holds no memory
It's your song that can't be sung
It's your song that can't be sung
When the sap from the evening's wrung
When the sap from the evening's wrung
Upon the line they're strung
Upon the line they're strung
On your song that can't be sung
On your song that can't be sung
Oh, I hope your load is light when the
One I've sent comes through
He wants to bring you right to the
Land of lily blue
Oh, I hope your load is light, and there's
Nothing you feel to do
Yes, I hope your load is light when that
Messenger comes through
Said, I hope your load is light through the
Sands of Teewa Tsu
And I hope your load is light
When your traveling days are through
See your childhood flowers open
Up when the day is due
The day our evening watchman cries
"Faith, the boy's come through!"
If you trust the messenger
Whom I've sent out for you
Welcome. You're homebound
Hand in your worried shoes
Oh, brutes, show it all to him
Love and war ten hilts deep
Fly swiftly, cardinal melody
Sing this to him in his sleep
If you trust the messenger
Whom I've sent out for you
Welcome, you're homebound
Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
On the trail at night
Keep that sunny river dale held
Steady in your sight
'Cause even if the homeland's ravaged
With no familiar face in sight
You'll need to see the plight, if you
Want to follow that light
I recall the painted dragon head
On their boat, coming 'round the trees
Its eyes aglow with cinnabar
Grinning fierce, and looking at me
We assembled on the bluff

When you get there, child, you won't be seeing me
But if you trust the messenger

It's your song that can't be sung
When the sap from the evening's wrung
When the sap from the evening's wrung
Upon the line they're strung
Upon the line they're strung
On your song that can't be sung
On your song that can't be sung

Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
Hand in your worried shoes
