Thanksgiving song.

lyrics

Mountain
words and music by Michael Alan Silverstone
© 2012 Mr. Silverstone Music Publishing

When the sun comes up
and illuminates the land
around the mountain
And birds appear
gliding in the wind
above the sea

. . .And as the day begins
we have no way to know
whatever fate may bring
and requires that we let go
if only just to keep ourselves
out of the undertow

I’m an old man now
and I knew I never wanted to be lonely
I was a young one once
and never thought that that would end
now what I know so well
I never knew before
trying to get ahead
when no one was keeping score
so now what I feel for sure
I’ve never felt it more

Had some disappointments
that had happened long ago
guess I’ve never fully
gotten over it. . . I know

Tried to make them something
that I thought that I could use
I’d do it all again
if I had a chance to choose today

As the sun goes down
and the shadows cover over the mountain
And night arrives
with starlight over the sea

we get to live our lives
before we’re sent away
As all the years go by
and fill up the dossier
If I could give you the world
I would have underpaid
