Along The Mountain Road

I'm up before the sun

There's an ever-lightening load I'm carrying

Along the mountain road

With all the animals

Where the dream keeps going

Where the dream keeps going, yeah

The air is cool and bright

And there's room enough to work outside

And there is no news to read

I learn all I need

From the wind upon my sleeve

From the wind upon my sleeve

Always driving past

Pressed against the glass

Like an open hand

Calling me back, back, back again

But will I ever get the strength

Just to let my legs walk into it?

Like a child too cold to sleep

With a blanket at her feet

I ride the freeways

Looking east

All my life I was driving past

All I wanted but I never had

Wondering if she'll ever have me back

Have me back, back, back again

I've stayed too late

Just fell asleep here in this temporary state

And time will not wait

I've seen so many of my dreams carried away

But this dream never fades

Green is the colour and deeper is the shade

I've seen everything change

Green is the colour and easy is the way

Back, back, back again
