Kasey Chambers - This Mountain lyrics

Well, a wise man once said to me

If your heart don't break you won't be free

I'm as free as a bird

Flying out over

Flying out over the sea

I call out to the wind

No one comes to let me in

I hear the thunder

The weight on my shoulders

The weight up on my shoulders crushing me

Shine down on this mountain

Rain down on my face

Call out to the river

To wash me out

To wash me out of this place

Well, I wish that I was a sailor man

With the wheel of the ship held in my hand

But I don't like the water

I'm more like the anchor

I wish I was the anchor in me

Sometimes I wish I was a sin

So the ones I love wouldn't let me in

I wouldn't have to try

To find the answers

To give 'em all the answers they need

Shine down on this mountain

Rain down on my face

Call out to the river

To wash me out

To wash me out of this place
