Stanley Blacks Everest Lyrics

Ok, here we go
I confess I wasn't perfect but you're old enough to know
When good times fade to bad, it leaves fear and desperation
Bestowed upon my mind

I lost sight of the mountain
Horizon fades away

Darling, darling, I, oh I'm trying but my
Reasons are falling down, the slopes of Everest
Too steep to slow my fall
'cause you know I can't stand when we crawl

I promised you paradise and I won't stop till I find it,
God knows I need you now
Pretended not to care but is it so hard to believe,
I only wanted you to want me

I lost sight of the mountain
Horizon fades away

Darling, darling, I, oh I'm trying but my Reasons are falling down, the slopes of Everest
Too steep to slow my fall
'cause you know I can't stand when we crawl

Darling, darling, I, oh I'm trying but my
Reasons are falling down, the slopes of Everest
Too steep to slow my fall,
Climbed up way too high to hear my call
I shout darling, darling, don't fall by the wayside now,
You shroud my sky but you never ever told me why

So welcome to nowhere, the wilderness where you belong,
Everest your only friend
But I'll still be your bearing, on a compass I thought was broken,
Prove me wrong, find your way home.
