Gary Moore - Sail Across the Mountain lyrics

[Gary Moore - Sail Across the Mountain lyrics]

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
