Mountains To The Sea (Album Version)

Mountains To The Sea (Album Version) - Dan Fogelberg

Well I spent two days traveling

The Mountains to the Sea

I knew the change would do me good

Set my spirit free

I spent two night 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 can not see the land

And I wonder if you'll ever understand

Why a soul with so much heaven held

Should ever feel so damned

Why it's always so uncomfortable

To hold anothers hand

Why of late I feel myself a ship

Out to sea unmanned

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

Beyond the shore

Then they fly off in the distance

'Til they finally fade from view

Somehow they remind me so of you

There's so many things you need to learn

I can never teach

Places in your troubled soul

That I may never reach

So I wander like an ebbing tide

Along this lonely beach

Cast my dreams like stones into the sea
