Mount Eerie - The Place I Live lyrics
[Mount Eerie - The Place I Live lyrics]
If I look or if I don't look
Clouds are always passing over
The place I live the place I live
Passing under my feet while my mind wanders
In a sea of fog on a ridge
Seeing through a hole in the fog
("A thought out of nowhere
Comes passing through") i say to myself
("I say to myself, like a voice on the wind")
"Behold" but, I see nothing
Rocks and water and wood not speaking to me
("Left alone to wander above")
Slow and uneasy and alive
("wanderer above the sea of fog")
I mean the place lives and clouds pass over
("sitting on a ridge and
Watching clouds pass over") the landscape
A blanket on stone
("where an ocean of glaciers rolled")
Land waves are rolling
("Through a fog, this is a brief life")
("Short and cold, momentarily")
("A life as brief as the morning fog")
Momentarily i come out from under
Clouds are always passing over
The place I live the place I live
Passing under my feet while my mind wanders
In a sea of fog on a ridge
Seeing through a hole in the fog
("A thought out of nowhere
Comes passing through") i say to myself
("I say to myself, like a voice on the wind")
"Behold" but, I see nothing
Rocks and water and wood not speaking to me
("Left alone to wander above")
Slow and uneasy and alive
("wanderer above the sea of fog")
I mean the place lives and clouds pass over
("sitting on a ridge and
Watching clouds pass over") the landscape
A blanket on stone
("where an ocean of glaciers rolled")
Land waves are rolling
("Through a fog, this is a brief life")
("Short and cold, momentarily")
("A life as brief as the morning fog")
Momentarily i come out from under
