Nada Surf - No Snow On The Mountain lyrics

rate me

There's no snow on the mountain

There's no river to cross

We'd gone past it and we counted

Now we're drinking our dust

There's no snow on the mountain

There's no water to drink

We sat back and we just counted

We didn't think

It's crazy cause it shouldn't be that hard

To take care of everyone we don't need petty guards

The only crimes left to be ones of love

And when those eyes go dark you know it's bad enough

We signed up for extinction anyway

Threw out our thinking caps and gave our minds away

There's no snow on the mountain

There's no river to cross

We'd gone past it and we counted

Now we're drinking our dust

But how many dreams do we hold on to?

You've had so many you left with so few

But it's really all you ever did

You piled up the shares since you were a kid

So many pictures of things to do

What you were just thinking now you see right through

Baby, I've only got summer tires

But we're driving deep in your snow

Baby, I can't reach your wires

Let it go, let it go, let it go

There's no snow on the mountain

There's no water to drink

We got past it and we counted

We didn't think

Baby, I've only got summer tires

But we're driving deep in your snow

Baby, I can't redo your wires

Let it go, let it go, let it go

Let it go

There on every broadway, the liar, the friend, the curious, the cold of heart

We did it our way, we used, we burned, we lobbed, we shipped, we scarred

There on every broadway, the liar, the friend, the curious, the cold of heart

We did it our way, we used, we burned, we lobbed, we shipped, we scarred

We chose the scepter, we played the emperor card

We chose the scepter, we played the emperor card
