As He Climbed The Dark Mountain

As He Climbed The Dark Mountain - Thursday

Watched him walk away (watched him walk away)

Climb the endless shadow side

Watched him holding on

(watched him holding on) (watched him walk away)

It was a thousand years a thousand miles a thousand dreams a thousand minutes

With no goodbye

Disappear from me (a thousand miles a thousand dreams a thousand minutes)

Hold on

As he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain

Let the mountain sleep

In the past with all our bad dreams

Was it a metaphor for all the subtle ways we would grow apart

Was it mortality

Climbing and plunged right off of the edge of his life

Into the hands of a loving God oh reaching forward to get torn apart

With his hands in the air was he laughing and dancing or only just trying to wave 'Goodbye'

Say a prayer for me (Hold on )

As he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain

Let the mountain fall

Struck me down until I can't go on

Let go Let me fall down onto the ground

Don't leave

Go on alone

It felt like a thousand years

It was a thousand miles away

It was a thousand miles away
