To The Mountains

I woke up too early Way ahead of the day With clouds in my head Making blue skies grey Then you called to ask What shall we do Now we're heading east Up on Highway two The road winds on Way up high Forests fade to meadow Open to the sky Mountains appear Like jagged art We find an old sign Somewhere to start Take me to the mountains The clouds are on the run Take me to the mountains We're going to catch the sun Resting hours later We sink into the view The grey rocks whistle As marmots pass their news Circling Lord Raven calls Why are you here Shadows stretch the day So we leave while it's clear Take me to the mountains The clouds are on the run Take me to the mountains We're going to catch the sun Last night my dreams Took me far away Early up this morning And ready for the day Staring out a window Searching for that view Thinking of the highway And thinking about you Take me to the mountains The clouds are on the run Take me to the mountains We're going to catch the sun Take me to the mountains The clouds are on the run Take me to the mountains We're going to catch the sun
