I'll Climb the Mountain with You

When the nightingales have flown
And the fields have turned to stone
When the riverbed’s dry as a bone
I’ll climb the mountain with you

When the pictures start to fade
And the second hand cuts like a blade
When the hourglass has had its say
I’ll climb the mountain with you

The days are long, the nights are cold
The years are short but they take a toll
Come on baby, the mountain’s high
But I got a mind to cross the borderline

So hug the boy and kiss the girl
Take me by the hand, we’ll take on the world
Let’s take a walk into the blue
I’ll climb the mountain with you
We’ll lose ourselves to find something new
I’ll climb this mountain with you
