Above the Timberline

I get a little tired
Looking through the trees
Sitting on the 405
Hoping for a breeze
Everybody's gunning
You got something to see
I gotta sell this ticket
Get the shadow off of me
So what is your problem
You been moping around
You need to find a mountaintop
And get out of this town
She says sometimes
You gotta get away
Clear out that noggin
Open up the day
Above the timberline
The higher I go, the harder I climb
I'm closer to you
It's clear in my mind
Love shines bright above the timberline
Things get slower
When it's harder to breath
I can almost touch the stars
That are hanging over me
You've never been more beautiful
And it's easy to see
All that really matters
You're all I'll ever need
I'm getting to the home
At the top of the world
Leading to realities
Up down at the curb
Oh the noise between us,
Now it can't be heard
I'm listening to the wind
I'm writing down the words
Above the timberline
The higher I go, the harder I climb
I'm closer to you
It's clear in my mind
Love shines bright above the timberline
Now I'll be coming home,
I'll be coming home soon
Before I head on down
I'm gonna kiss the moon
Above the timberline
The higher I go, the harder I climb
I'm closer to you
It's clear in my mind
Love shines bright above the timberline
Above the timberline
No heading up race, no waiting in line
The farther I go
The harder you climb
Love shines bright above the timberline
