Mountains

作词 : Benjamin Cooper

作曲 : Benjamin Cooper

I was just a boy

My father seemed a mountain then

With a voice that could shake the seas

My mother's ghost hung across his shoulders

And he said she was still watching over me

My brother was home

Just returned on army leave

Told his stories with a distant stare

And as it snowed

The wind was howling through the trees

And I spent my night just listening by the fire

My hands move the creases from my brow

Soft as a breath

It's like a feather

I dreamed of a lonely voice that night

Quiet as death

Outside my window

It sang a sad and lovely tune

Clear as a bell

Soft as a shiver

It said, I want you all the time

It said, I want you all the time

Goodbye bad thoughts

I'm safe under covers

So goodbye bad thoughts

'Cause I'm safe under covers

Now I can see you again
