I Never Asked To Be Your Mountain

O i never asked to be your mountain

I never asked to fly

Remember when you came to me

And told me of his lies

You didn't understand my love

You don't know why i try

And the rain was falling on that day

And damn the reason why

The flying pisces sails for time

And tells me of my child

Wrapped in bitter tales and heartache

He begs for just a smile

O he never asked to be her mountain

He never asked to fly

And through his eye he comes his love

And tells her not to cry

She says, 'your scoundrel father flies

With a dancer called a queen

And with her stolen cards he plays

And laughs, but never wins'

O the child dreams to be his hands

In the counting of the rain

But only barren breasts he feels

For her milk will never drain

As i die i can't remember

Where i saw the rain:

Could it be that her laughter

Drove me down again?

Charming dancer will you stop,

Stop and talk to me?

Is there someone else you feel

In your dreams? you will, you see:

In midnight gazes

I've found you far from me:

If you lead me on

Please leave me down

O flying flying fish

Please flutter by my door:

Yes you can drink my lies

If first you read my eyes:

Each one is titled

'i'm drowning back to you':

I can't swim your waters

And you can't walk my lands:

I'm sailing all my sins

And i'm climbing all my fears

And soon now i'll fly

O i never asked to be your mountain

I never asked to fly

Remember when you came to me

And told me of his lies

You didn't understand my love

You don't know why i try

And the rain was falling on that day

And that's the reason why

Sweet lover, will you come back

And love me for a while?

Please take my hand

Leave all your fears behind

I've been gone too long

Now i'm home to stay

Please don't leave me

Again this way

Please come home
