Move To The Mountains Lyrics

Clock Opera Move To The Mountains

You're looking at me with questions in mind
Are we ready? Is now the right time?

Those lines on my palm won't tell you a thing
The signs and the stars
Can't say what tomorrow will bring

Would we leave all our doubt and fear for wonder?
Hold ourselves upright or go under?
If I make us a tape for colder country
Will we listen to it when we're older? Maybe

I tried, but I couldn't see the curve
That's running round the earth until I saw you

So let's move to the mountains and shove our shack up
Sew up our silk and milk our matter
Let's leave all this city to blame and bluster
And meet in the snow to make our muster

I tried, but I couldn't see the curve
That's running round the earth until I saw you

And though the days will turn to nights
We'll never see the stars
If we stay where we are

We can go where we want, make up rules
Be a part of it, stop passing through
And we will see this world anew

So let's leave all our doubt and fear for wonder
I'll hold you up, we won't go under
Let's move to the mountains and shove our shack up
Sew up our silk and milk our matter

You know we can always come back one day
To see what has changed, who's taken our place
Let's leave all this city to blame and bluster
And meet in the snow to make our muster
