(Gary Moore)
|
As the day begins, it finds me wonderin'
|
what to do with myself.
|
You came here, you left your mark, you disappeared,
|
now there is nobody else.
|
|
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
|
The song of the sky made my body rejoice.
|
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
|
Sailed across the mountain,
|
and the sun was in my voice.
|
|
I need someone to come along and
|
take this weight right of my shoulder before I fall.
|
You were here, but now you've gone.
|
The summer came and slept away from under us all.
|
|
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
|
The mist cleared away and I saw your face there.
|
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
|
Sailed across the mountain,
|
and the sun was in your hair.
|
|
The mountainside is very steep,
|
can't go on, I've tried to sleep.
|
Somebody lay me down.
|
If you don't climb, you're gonna fall,
|
catch your wary dreams at all.
|
A-a-ah, yeah (somebody lay me down).
|
Back in the ground,
|
yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah.
|
Somebody lay me down.
|
I need somebody (somebody lay me down).
|
Need somebody to lay me down,
|
yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah,
|
somebody to lay me down.
|
|
How I got here I can't say.
|
It was my own fault,
|
I admit that I should have learned.
|
From watching others I have seen
|
it's either up or down,
|
there can be no in-between.
|
|
Time was we sailed across the mountain.
|
To think it could last can't have been very wise.
|
Time sent me falling down the mountain.
|
Falling down the mountain,
|
for the sun was in my eyes.
