You're The Wax Beneath My Skis

 It was cold for me never moving

Never knowing a change in scenery
I was content to stay in one place

Not knowing a different life for me

Then you came and showed me what I could be

Did you know that I was a zero

The days before I met you

I never went very fast
I never went very far

You’re the wax beneath my skis

I’ve herringboned up hills slowly

While others pass with ease

At the top I’ve doubled over

Trying to suck air back in me

As the other skiers fade into the trees

Did you know that I was a zero

The days before I met you

I never went very fast
I never went very far

You’re the wax beneath my skis

Now I glide upon the snowscape

Moving with such ease

Finding joy in my travels

Seeing all that I can see

This is a real kicker for me

Did you know that I was a zero

The days before I met you

I never went very fast
I never went very far

You’re the wax beneath my skis
