jason dea west - mountain air lyrics

Loading...

mountain air’s gonna keep me strong
between two rivers deep and long
back down in the valley where the children play
way out west i’ve gone to stray

well the sun is beating at my back
it’s an endless lonesome railroad track
i’m walking slow but i’m walking hard
i dreamt your face in that old train yard

i walked all the way to the edge of town
thought a little while then i turned around
i guess i’ve grown too old to run
dreaming of the land of the midnight sun

and i miss some people i once knew
seasons change and folks do too
they’re way out east and i’m way out west
right or wrong i think i did my best

now my stomach is empty and my mind is dust
i can’t seem to name a single soul i trust
so i guess it’s time i run to the hills
gonna blow my nose with a ten dollar bill
money means nothing when you’re high in the hills
well it’s been a long time since i’ve been seen
back down in the valley sober and clean
but things ain’t always what they seem
spring came early and the valley is green

come on down to the valley floor
stop on down at the general store
hear the talk of town and then you walk some more
just kept going til my legs were sore

say you need me and you need me bad
you’re the best friend i’ve ever had
love’s the strongest thing i know
i’ll be there no matter where you go

two thousand miles is a long long ways
but we’ll make it there in just three days
i’ll take it straight i’ll take it slow
back to the land of the ice (it’s more of an alaska) and snow

and come the day my final breath
physically i’ll meet my death
tell my friend in tennessee
he hasn’t seen the last of me
write a song in memory
pray beneath the willow tree
pray beneath the willow (says long prayer) tree
