Inchworm's Triumph

from A New Day by MahaMaya Band

/

about

I once met an inchworm. He wonderfully contorted his body inch-by-inch across the redwood forest floor of the Santa Cruz mountains in California. I felt in that moment, I was the inchworm, walking only an inch at a time. I was, somehow, impatient to get to where I was going, and this patient slow creature taught me about my path ahead. He seemed delighted at each step and was headed in some direction, toward what, only he knew. Reflecting on all this, the song was born spontaneously.

4) Inchworm's Triumph
Lyrics by Mahalakshmi

When I see you stand before me,
I will know my time has come.
When you look into my eyes,
I will see what I've been working for.

If you come, then I'll leave everything behind;
all this come and go and come and go.
Please, please take my hand;
enter inside my heart and my mind
and I'll be fine all the time.

I'll be fine all of the time.
One inch at a time, walking one inch at a time.

If you come, then I'll leave everything behind;
all this come and go and come and go.
Please, please take my hand;
enter inside my heart and my mind
and I'll be fine, all the time.

We'll be fine all of the time.
One inch at a time, walking one inch at a time.

When I see you stand before me,
I will know my time has come.
When you look into my eyes,
I will see for whom I've been working.
