Leaving the Mountain |
We were leaving the mountain, it needed the day |
I watched as the whiteness melted away |
Our driver liked talking, with the hills in his eyes |
And he mentioned a forest buried in ice |
He wanted to go and show it off glistening |
And it all came alive in our listening |
I could hear crisp Edelweiss |
Just in the words that rang in my mind |
It really did glow like art in a gallery |
In the mind, and then it was vanishing |
And that place that was there |
Deep in thе land |
It put something new in the air |
Down in the valley, homes letting out smoke |
And signs of landslides, I saw as he spoke |
Dad said "let's go there, it's right on our way" |
But we didn't have time to, we'll see it someday |
He wanted to go and show it off glistening |
And it all came alive in our listening |
I could hear crisp Edelweiss |
Just in the words that rang in my mind |
It really did glow like art in a gallery |
In the mind, and then it was vanishing |
And that place in the land |
One of those things you try |
But you can't understand |
One of those things you try |
But you can't understand |
