"The Mountain" lyrics

"The Mountain"

He said his heart was on the wrong side of his chest
Then placed my hand over it
"Let me show you how vulnerable I am"
Giant steps taken into my labyrinth
I am compassionate

I run because the mountain will not come
I run, run, run too close to the sun
'Cause the mountain will not come to me
Never comes to me

You asked me why I loved you (You asked)
I said, "I can't help it, I just do
There's something about you"
Now I pull the sound around me and I sing myself to sleep
You'll see how gentle I can be

When I run, because the mountain will not come
I run, run, some things I can't get done
'Cause the mountain will not come to me
You'll see how gentle I can be
Oh-oh, oh-oh

All you'll see
Is all the love in me
Yeah, I climbed the mountain blind
I turned around to find
A heart as complicated as mine
You'll see
All the love in me
You'll, you'll see
All the love, all the love in me
