Mountain At My Gates (acoustic @ BBC Radio 6 Music)
I see a mountain at my gates I see it more and more each day What I give, it takes away Whether I go or when I stay
I see a mountain at my gates I see it more and more each day I see a fire out by the lake I'll drive my car without the brakes
I see a mountain in my way It's looming larger by the day I see a darkness in my fate I'll drive my car without the brakes
Oh, gimme some time Show me the foothold from which I can climb Yeah, when I feel low You show me a signpost for where I should go
I see a mountain at my gates I see it more and more each day And my desire wears a dark dress But each day, I see you less
Oh, gimme some time Show me the foothold from which I can climb Yeah, when I feel low You show me a signpost for where I should go
Through lanes and stone rows Black granite, wind blows Fire lake and far flame Go now but come again Dark clouds gather 'round Will I run or stand my ground?
Oh, when I come to climb Show me the mountain so far behind Yeah, it's farther away Its shadow gets smaller day after day
Yeah, gimme my way Gimme my love Gimme my choice You keep me coming around Gimme my fate Gimme my lungs Gimme my voice You keep me coming around Gimme my lungs Gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my Gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my way Gimme my fate Gimme my lungs Gimme my choice You keep me coming round
