lyrics

I hope we make it up the mountain,
I hope we make it up the mountain,
but if we fall in the valley below,
you will have my hand to hold.

I hope we make it cross the ocean,
I hope we make it cross the ocean,
but if we just get lost at sea,
I'll drift just as happily.

I hope our pockets fill with silver,
I hope our pockets fill with gold,
but if they only fill with holes,
I'll just have more to sew.

I hope that we can find our calling,
I hope that we can find our calling,
but if I never find my way,
I'll keep calling out your name.

I hope that we both find true love,
I hope that we both find true love,
but if I only find heartbreak,
I will love you just the same.

I hope we make it to the moon and back,
I hope we make it to the moon and back,
but if we're caught in the vastness of creation,
we'll make some handsome constellations.

Cape Disappointment - EP
by Cape Disappointment

Thoughtfully produced and honestly sung, this is some of Cape Disappointment's best work. Listen for clear cello-like vocals and careful articulation of feeling - great pacific northwestern folk! Reid Farnsworth
