How did we get here, when did we decide

We were better off starving than swallowing our pride? You had to come so far down, to look me in the eye

Black mountain, I wish I could

See you running free and young, through those woods Black mountain, is there still time

To make amends, to hold your hand in mine?

Now that I'm older, I see my fingerprints

On half of the shovels, that dug us into this

How much love's it gonna take, to cover up these sins?

Black mountain, I wish I could

See you running free and young, through those woods Black mountain, is there still time

To make amends, to hold your hand in mine?

Well if we can't go back and change what has been said

Maybe we can find a better way ahead

Oh, I know that there's still time, and there's still hope, there's still an us

No matter what we might have done, I'll meet you on

Black mountain, I wish I could

See you running free and young, through those woods Black mountain, is there still time

To make amends, to hold your hand in mine?

To make amends, to hold your hand in mine?
