"Every Dawn's A Mountain" lyrics

Cleaning off the dust
Drinking from the fountain
Toiling in the blood
Every dawn's a mountain
And I'm climbing them without you
All roads ahead
And I still hope to find you
If ever they get me home

Where we used to walk
The pavement turned to meadow
My eyes still wanna fall
On you, shining in the soft glow
Now I'm crashing into concrete
Reaching up high
I'm trying to remember
The color of the sky back home

I'm holding on, I'm holding up
I'm holding on, I'm holding up

Steam flows from the cup
She's making sure I'm warmer
And though I'm warming up
I can't shake the shiver
I can spend the night beside her
Tracing your heat
Makes me coffee in the morning
But she doesn't feel like home

There's so much to see
So much to see
So much ahead of me

Cleaning off the dust
Breaking every mirror
All I've known to love
Isn't getting nearer
And I'm older than my mother
When she gave me the day
And I might be going nowhere
But I can't lift the veil alone
