Move the Mountain

Would you move the mountain
Would you build a tower
Would you drink the sunshine
Like a wilted flower?

Would you waste that hour
If you knew this fullmoon would be
The last one you'd see?

Would you gaze in wonder
While the world was turning
While the moon made quiet
All the years of yearning?

Would the flame keep burning
If you knew the powers that be
Could set you free?

Don't know why you had to go
In the storylight, a flame in the darkness And we'll never really know
If you'll ever see me again.

Swam around in circles
In a meandering ocean
Had a dream of safety
That's lost emotion.

Could a faded notion
Make you find your way back to shore Looking for more?

So we head for safety
But we never get there
And I brush the shadows
From a staring nightmare.

On the road to nowhere,
Would you help me carry my cross
And set me free?

Don't know why you had to go
In the storylight, a flame in the darkness And we'll never really know
If you'll ever see me again.

Don't know why you had to god
In the storylight, a flame in the darkness, And we'll never really know If you'll ever see me again.
