i got stranded on this mountainside
was tossed about in a landslide
that's how i lost my way down
so i hung from cliffs i hung from trees
fell in ravines and skin my knees
but the trail was nowhere to be found
there are no coincidences here
best to rest till morning nears
when rescuers can hear my call
throw me a rope throw me a line
lower me down the mountainside
slowly don't let me fall
shall we dance the dance of fear
speak words babe
words unclear
see who will react to
simple truths misunderstood
simple intentions are from good
there is no turning back
gifts are given from above
some with scorn some with love
some are wrapped in misery
coincidences this i know
best to rest through the night
so when morning mist clears that i'll see
the beauty in all living things
the power of spirit in everything
the mountainside is where i climb
to get a better view
i'd be lying to say
i learned nothing from you
so i'm stranded on this mountain side
tripped over stones of jagged pride
i can't find my way down
so i climb higher in the atmosphere
where the air is thin my thoughts are clear
but i can look around
there are no coincidences here
best to rest till morning years
when rescuers can hear my call
throw me a rope throw me a line
lure me down the mountainside
i hope that they let
me fall into the beauty of all living things
the power of spirit in heaven everything
the mountainside is where i'm climb to
get a better view
i'd be lying to say i learned nothing from you
stranded on this mountainside
gifts are given from above
some with scorn some with love
some are wrapped in misery
coincidence is this i know best to rest in the shade
so when evening comes then i'll see
the beauty in all living things
the power of spirit in everything
the mountainside is where i climb to get a better view
i'd be lying to say i haven't learned anything from
the beauty of all living things
the power of spirit everything
a mountainside is where i climb to get a better view
you must know i've learned so many things from you
i got stranded on this mountainside
was tossed about in a landslide
that's when i lost my way down
