Mountains

(album: Late Night Tales: Jordan Rakei - 2021)

Up on the mountain
Searched through the valley
Can you hear me calling?
Won't you come find me?

Please don't forsake me
All of a sudden
My heart is breaking
I feel it coming

I've seen this place before
A colour-blinded senseless sight to see
And when it rains, only rains on me

But where were you when I was frozen?
Drenched in white stone, it was cold
And I had been ashamed and opposed to fire
But still I do everything you require

So what can I say but I'm hoping
The hour will still turn to golden
We will see the sun as it's supposed to be
Shining straight through to you and me

Up on the mountain (Up on the mountain)
Searched through the valley (Searched through the valley)
Can you hear me calling? (Can you hear me calling?)
Won't you come find me? (Won't you come and find me?)
Please don't forsake me (Please don't)
All of a sudden (All of a sudden)
My heart is breaking I feel it coming

I, I, I don't understand why you blame me
Just take me as I am, it's the same me
We should be together
So tell me where you go when you know better?

I love holding you
And touching you
'Cause you help me deal with the pain
So how could you turn into
The demons you
Once said that you'd keep away

I'm in my feelings, I'm tired, I'm bleeding
I'm nothing, I'm choking without you
I become weak from the mountains
I'll scream till the morning wraps me back around you
Where the colours of your mind will turn around
And so will you too
Oh no, don't let it go

Up on the mountain (Mountain, baby)
Searched through the valley (I searched through the valley)
Can you hear me calling? (You hear me, hear me calling)
Won't you come find me? (I know, I know, I know)
Please don't forsake me (Please don't)
All of a sudden (I can't be through)
My heart is breaking I feel it coming

Up on the mountain
Searched through the valley
Can you hear me calling?
Won't you come find me?

Please don't forsake me
All of a sudden
My heart is breaking
