Ride to Ascension

Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?

There is no there!

Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?

It’s always now!

Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?

There is here!

Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?

Ooh look at that!
is!
Right!
Around!
The corner!
