Meg Hutchinson Climbing Mountains Lyrics

Dreamt last night I was climbing mountains Way beyond the earth's strange pull Dreamt last night I was climbing mountains Way beyond love's fierce hold Dreamt last night I was climbing mountains Way beyond the sad remains Of this wild wild world that was never ours That somehow we had the need to claim Nothing but the wind and sky And this impulse to survive But when dark falls behind windows See these tired eyes bathed in blue light Watch the world turn watch the heart find Comfort alone won't keep us alive Dreamt last night of your Irish eyes Of your teeth shining in the dark when you smile Of your solitude and your even keel Of your steady gate and the loss that you feel Nothing but the love remains The rest it seems to always fade But when dark falls behind windows See these tired eyes bathed in blue light Watch the world turn watch the heart find Comfort alone won't keep us Keep us Imagine a whole country asleep at the wheel Inventing so many new ways to avoid what we feel But when dark falls.... Dark falls, windows, tired eyes, blue light Dreamt last night I was climbing mountains
