dan fogelberg - mountains to the sea lyrics
well i spent two days in traveling
the mountains to the sea
i knew the change would do me good
and set my spirit free
i spent two nights in wondering
what it is you’ve done to me
before an answer came i reached the sea
there i spent my days in wandering
the reaches and the reefs
and my soul becomes so quiet
i can hear my own beliefs
i sail out on the ocean
’til i cannot see the land
and i wonder if you’ll ever understand
why a soul with so much heaven held
should ever feel so d-mned
why it’s always so uncomfortable
to hold anothers hand
why of late i feel myself a ship
out to sea unmanned
and i wonder if you’ll ever understand
there are seagulls in the morning here
i watch them search and soar
as they dive to take the fishes that swim just
just beyond the sh-r-
then they fly off in the distance
’til they finally fade from view
and somehow they remind me so of you
there’s so many things you need to learn
that i can never teach
and places in your troubled soul
that i may never reach
so i wander like an ebbing tide
along this lonely beach
and cast my dreams like stones into the sea
