Katie Melua - Leaving the Mountain Lyrics

Lyrics Leaving the Mountain - Katie Melua



We were leaving the mountain, it needed the day
I watched as the whiteness melted away
Our driver liked talking, with the hills in his eyes
And he mentioned a forest buried in ice
He wanted to go and show it off glistening
And it all came alive in our listening
I could hear crisp Edelweiss
Just in the words that rang in my mind
It really did glow like art in a gallery
In the mind, and then it was vanishing
And that place that was there
Deep in the land
It put something new in the air
Down in the valley, homes letting out smoke
And signs of landslides, I saw as he spoke
Dad said "Let′s go there, it's right on our way"
But we didn′t have time to, we'll see it some day
He wanted to go and show it off glistening
And it all came alive in our listening
I could hear crisp Edelweiss
Just in the words that rang in my mind
It really did glow like art in a gallery
In the mind, and then it was vanishing
And that place in the land
One of those things you try
But you can't understand
One of those things you try
But you can′t understand
Show it off glistening
Listening
Edelweiss
Rang in my mind
Art in a gallery
And then it was vanishing
That was there, deep in the land
Put something new in the air
