Mountains
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.
You know I couldn't see which way to turn
Fell down at the floor at your feet, begged you to let me burn
Told you I'm just too afraid to stay here in your arms
Drive me off the edge of this cliff
And you can watch me crash dance
We both know it’s not an easy ride
When it goes up in smoke
I just want to hide
Can we make it right?
Like it was at the start
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
So you turned to the mountain
She started to sing soft
Elvis in the midnight air
I lost your body and soul to the fog
A hundred forks in the road
A hundred knives in my heart
He said go sing to the lovers
Don’t ever look over your shoulders
We both know it’s not an easy ride
When it goes up in smoke
I just want to hide
Can we make it right?
Like it was at the start
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
We both know it’s not an easy ride
When it goes up in smoke
I just want to hide
Can we make it right?
Like it was at the start
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
Sing to me in the dark
