Step by step [bad word] closer to reaching the top 
Every step must be placed so that I don't fall off 
Looking down to see about how much higher I am 
Another cool [bad word] through, [bad word] my skin 

The harder I push the tension does grow 
I gather my thoughts the further and further I go 
With some luck I just might keep on climbing 
So better to climb than to face a fall 

So high the climb 
I Can't turn back now 
Must keep climbing up to the clouds 
So high the climb 
I Can't turn back now 
Must keep climbing up to the clouds 

Pulling myself up by a rope I better my view 
The only thing in sight is what I must do 
As I turned I could see myself falling 
Which in return gave me strength for the climb 

So high the climb 
I Can't turn back now 
Must keep climbing up to the clouds 
So high the climb 
I Can't turn back now 
Must keep climbing up to the clouds 

Although many failed 
I must now prevail with no question 
Have no time to stop 
Onward to the top of the mountain 
And I can't turn back now 
It's so very high but I can't turn back now 
If I keep it up, I'm gonna make it 
I'm so very close can't you see 

I'm getting closer. . . 
Looking back...to you
