Mountain Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Climbing a mountain
To get to the top
One and another keeping on
Not knowing why or what
I might find up there
Scratches run up my legs from
The desert trees
I sit and wonder
Sit and wonder
Do my mistakes
Keep me at the gate
I'll never be better than you and me standing at the top with a clear view
If I lose my way I don't care
If I lose my way I don't care
I got someone like you with me
My mountain baby
If I lose my way I don't care
If I lose my way I don't care
I got someone like you with me
My mountain baby
My mountain baby
Still between us
Between us
There's a limit to
What you and I can take
If I lose my way I don't care
If I lose my way I don't care
I got someone like you with me
My mountain baby
If I lose my way I don't care
If I lose my way I don't care
I got someone like you with me
My mountain baby
Climbing a mountain
To get to the top
One and another keeping on
Not knowing why or what
I might find up there
Scratches run up my legs from
The desert trees
If I lose my way I don't care
If I lose my way I don't care
I got someone like you with me
My mountain baby
