Song Lyrics

"Hike To Maine"

by Alathea
Album: What Light Is All About

Gonna' hike up to Maine along the spine of the Appalachians
Gonna' end up where the snow meets the sea
The snow is beckoning me
No measure of water could quench this fire
No mountain will get in my way
I'm gonna' hike to Maine

Gonna' live my life like everyday is the trail
Gonna' prance along the ridges
And wait out the storms in the shelter
Cause I know there's gonna' be rough weather
No measure of rain will dry up my heart
No cloud will make me stay
I'm gonna' hike to Maine

We're singing yeah
One step at a time

Gonna' plant my feet forward and vow not to ever look back with regret
Cause there is nothing that I can't do looking up and beyond myself
The weight of failure won't weigh down my pack
I'll just take what I learn on the way
I'm gonna' hike to Maine

When my tired bones need to stop and sit
I will rest my weary head on my walking stick

This trail is not made of dreams I will never taste
Life is so sweet I ate a bunch of berries while I walked today
Tonight the stars will be my tent
The sun will call me to wake
I'm gonna' hike to Maine

We're singing yeah
One step at a time
