Mountains and the Sea

Post by drproximo »

Mountains and the Sea
by Mystic Colossus

I’ve seen the Rocky Mountains
And I was born by the sea
I’ve seen both sides of the country
And I’ve seen a few sides of me

I’ve learned a lot about the world
And I learned to look within
It wasn’t everything I dreamed of
But I wouldn’t change a thing

Many of us crave adventure
And some would settle for clarity
And I might not always know what path I’m on
But I can always walk with me

Time marches on
But you don’t have to
You’ll still see dawn

They say that faith can move mountains
But there’s no guarantee
And sometimes a little movement
Can make them crumble to the sea

So be careful what you wish for
And don’t bet everything on dreams
Because the future still lies ahead
And nothing is what it seems

Time marches on
But you don’t have to
You’ll still see dawn
”Start where you are, use what you have, do what you can.” - Arthur Ashe

I woke to the sound of the market drums
Morning mist on the rice fields thin
Motorbikes humming like restless bees
And a river carrying everything
Old women laughing over tea
Boats drifting slow through silver light
Somewhere beyond the crowded streets
The mountains wait in blue and white

Between the mountains and the sea
There’s a road that keeps calling me
Where the rivers run wild and free
From the mountains to the sea

The mountains hold the stories old
Of rain and stone and memory
The sea remembers every river
Every wandering journey
Every wandering journey
Every wandering journey

Between the mountains and the sea
Between the mountains and the sea
Between the mountains and the sea
Between the mountains and the sea

Mountains and the Sea
by The Lonely Socks Club

(verse 1)
You never wanted anything from me but love
Something about you just makes me light up

(pre-chorus)
And the world opens wide
Little storm in disguise
Steady heart, running free

(chorus)
The way you look at me like I am your whole world, but to me
You’re the mountains and the sea
And everything in between

(verse 2)
Every mile with you is a memory
Chase every bird and every leaf
Running wild between the trees
You remind me that joy is free
The way life’s meant to be

(pre-chorus)
Bright as the morning sky
Golden brown eyes
Ready heart, running wild and free

(chorus)
The way you look at me like I am your whole world, but to me
You’re the mountains and the sea
The way you look at me like I am your whole world, but to me
You’re the mountains and the sea
But to me
You’re everything
You’re everything
in between
Just a girl who loves doing laundry, creating music and hanging out with her super fucking awesome dog.

Mountains and the Sea
Pigfarmer Jr

The sun has fallen
Into the sea
So I climb the mountain
To bring her back to me

But I'm growing tired
I'm beginning to fade
The sun is exaping
And I feel betrayed

I know I'm lost
I know I'm bound to fail
But still I am trying
Though I am growing frail
I spend my life between the mountains
The mountains and the sea

My knuckles are bloody
My sight's growing dim
I look to the heavens
As I try again

I know I'm lost
I know I'm bound to fail
But still I am trying
Though I am growing frail
I spend my life between the mountains
The mountains and the sea

I've spent my life chasing you
There's nothing else I'd rather do
And through our imperfect love
I know I will find true grace

I know I'm lost
I know I'm bound to fail
But still I am trying
Though I am growing frail
I spend my life between the mountains
I spend my life between the mountains
I spend my life between the mountains
The mountains and the sea

Mountains and the Sea
by Berkeley Social Scene

The scent of your coffee drifts slowly me
We sit close together but there’s a valley between

So much distance

I feel alone at night in bed when we’re asleep
Will you always be next to me
Like the mountains and
The mountains and the sea

You said you'd love me to the moon and back
Now the space between us feel twice as far as that

So much distance

I feel alone at night in bed when we’re asleep
Will you always be next to me
Like the mountains and
The mountains and the sea

What we say and what we mean get so confused
You’re reaching your summit but I’m lost in the blue

So much distance
Lays between us

I feel alone at night in bed when we’re asleep
Will you always be next to me
Like the mountains and
The mountains and the sea

I feel alone at night in bed when we’re asleep
Will you always be next to me
Like the mountains and
The mountains and the sea
