Mountain So High
MOUNTAIN SO HIGH
VERSE 1
Some people go low, to cities on the shore
But not me I look to the sky
So I'm climbing til, I almost can't no more
Up this mountain, mountain so high
VERSE 2
I can see where I've been, but not where I'm goin
I wonder sometime, why I try
But I'm lookin for true, hopin someone will show me
Up this mountain, mountain so high
CHORUS 1
People keep on pushing me
Higher, higher they say
But they won't feel or ever see
The pain along the way
VERSE 3
Got to the top of this mountain, it's covered in snow
It's so cold, nothing can survive
So I'm leaving nothing with the cold
On this mountain, mountain so high
CHORUS 2
People keep on pushing me
Higher higher they say
But they won't feel, or ever see
Or live with my mistakes
VERSE 4
Someday I'll go home, to the valley below
From this place, where I wasted my time
No one will believe or ever know
The truth about that mountain so high
OUTRO
Oh the truth
So cold and lonely
On that mountain so high
