The Mountain

He said his heart was on the wrong side of his chest
And 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 close to me

You asked me why I loved you
I said, "I can't help it, I just do
There's something about you."
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, run, some thing's i can't get done
'Cause the mountain will not come to me
You'll see how gentle I can be,

Oh, you'll see
It's overwhelming me
Yeah, I climbed the mountain blind
I turned around to fight
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
