One By One

Three
In my family say
I never been anywhere
To the left sea
Can we go please?
We don't care we want to
Sit and stare at it

Can we try
To hold up our head
Feel the power of the land
That we trampled once
Can we go
Where you go?
We know you always
Need us behind

It's me, it's me
Callin' around lookin' for your reply
Let me tell you where the story
Will run to now
We came together
We will leave here one by one
Let's go on, and remember
Where we've been

Aunt Inez
From Virginia she
Makes me feel like
I could be the President
Of all I see
And all I dream
In these eyes that have
Held so much punishment

But It's me, it's me
Callin' around lookin' for your reply
Let me tell you where the story
Can run to now
We came together
But we will leave here one by one
Let's go on and remember
Where we've been

When she laughs
I hold up my head
She makes me feel like
I could walk on water now
Can she go
Where I go?
I know I'll always need her behind

It's me, it's me
Callin' around lookin' for your reply
Let me tell you where my story
Can run to now
We came together
(We will)
Leave here one by one
Let's go on, and remember
Where we've been
And what we've done because
(We)
We came together
We will leave here one by one
Let's go on, and remember
Where we've been
