Old and weathered these mountains
Worn and rounded their shoulders
Smooth under our soles
Become hard like the stone
I watch you steeling yourself
Against the fear
For there's always been something else
That really drives you
We have energy left to burn
We still have it all to come
There's a long list of things for us
In the glowing morning
For the lessons that we've learned
Have all been learned in the hard way
And soon they'll be nothing to deny
The best things are good to touch but never to take hold of
If we can forgive ourselves then we must forgive the others
The seasons will always return when they're ready
Like people will always come round when they're ready
And the lessons that we've learned
Have all been learned in the hard way
And soon they'll be nothing to deny
And the lessons that we've learned
Have all been learned in the hard way
And soon they'll be nothing to deny
And you don't know how the healing works
And you sure don't know how long it takes
Spirit will always find a way
Come back when you're ready
Come back when you're ready
When you're ready
