LIZ PHAIR LYRICS - Wind And The Mountain

"Wind And The Mountain"



You lose your way

You've gotta land

You've gotta make another plan

But sometimes I am too tired



You've gotta smile

You've gotta play

You've gotta work another day

But sometimes I am too tired



You've gotta raise your hand and say

I don't understand

But there are days when I'm to tired

There are days when I'm just too tired

And the wind that I'm in

Screams on me

Howls around me



And I feel like I am a naked man

I've got nothing and no one in a stranger's land

And the wind will do me in



Everyday

You've gotta run

You've got a job

You get it done

But sometimes I am too tired



You wanna roll in the grass

Kick your shoes off

Have a laugh

But sometimes I am too tired



I wanna raise my hand and say

I don't understand

But there are days when I'm to tired

There are days when I'm just too tired

And the wind kicks in again and says

Lean on me

Rise above me

And it says

Sailor don't leave the channel now

Deep blue rollers are breaking across your bow

And the wind will guide you in



So I went up the mountain

But all I saw was another mountain

So I came down the mountain

And I said, "leave me here lord"

So I went up the mountain

And all I saw was anouther mountain

So I came down the mountain

And I said, leave me here lord

Leave me in the valley

Let me rest my weary head

Give peace to your survivor

Put all my fears to bed



You lose your way

You've gotta land

You've gotta make another plan

But sometimes I am inspired



You're gonna sing another song

You're gonna right another wrong

And sometimes I am inspired



You're gonna raise your hand and say

I don't understand

There are days when you get an answer

There are days when you find your answer
