Sacred Mountain
Josh Clayton-Felt

LYRICS
I know a writer with a magic hand

he gives away his power every time he can

he could free the world if he could free himself

but he's much too busy quoting everyone else

still we close our eyes and listen hard as we can

to this gentle voice with a magic hand

 

CHORUS
 

it's only what you see

what you let yourself believe

I would get down on my knees

if that would help you

'cause it's all too good to taste

so we let it go to waste

I would let you take my place

'cause there's no use in counting

and I hope to see you

on the sacred mountain

yeah I hope to see you

on the sacred mountain…

 

I remember when he called me on the telephone

yeah I think it was his birthday we were both alone

because he said to wish him luck and lifted up his pen

I couldn't bring myself to tell him all this then…

 

CHORUS
 

I went to the future and I saw him there

we were on the mountain both with graying hair

he handed me his words and I began to sing

yeah they went like this it was the strangest thing

 

CHORUS
 

yeah I hope to see you on the sacred mountain

well I hope to see you on the sacred mountain

yes I hope to see you on the sacred mountain
