The Mountain

Song/Lyrics by: R. Egan

Waking up so cold and distant

I forgot where I was

Though you warmed me through the night.

Soon enough when leaning on the porch

The early morning

Glad we left it all behind.

I got news to share with you

Oh my home is a body in the wind.

Uh huh huh

I stretch my arms to protect you.

Vacancy can be so perfect when it’s what you hoped for.

Fire burned on through the day.

Walking through the courtyard festival

Where the tents are lined up.

It’s a wonder why we’ll turn away.

I got news to share with you

Oh my home is a body in the wind.

Uh huh huh

I stretch my arms to protect you.

When the news came through the wire

In the night.

We drove down to the town.

And though we tried to keep it quiet

We couldn’t hide it from day light.

And though the news to leave brought sadness

Yeah the leaves had turned again.

Nobody knew how long they’d had us

Nobody here to call a friend.

CHORUS
