Mountains On My Mind — текст песни (C.W. Mccall)

(C.W. McCall, Bill Fries, Chip Davis)

Rollin` down the runway
Thinkin` `bout the one-way of my life
With another cup of coffee
And another lonesome city far behind

This old 747 will be flyin` over Heaven
One more time
And the tears begin to fallin`
When I think about the mountains on my mind

But now the skies above are sunny
And it`s time to say it`s funny
How I never thought I`d ever fly this high
But maybe someday when it`s over
When I`m just a little older
I can go back to the mountains on my mind

Flyin` through the night time
To a far off city skyline in the dawn
And a thousand lights below me
Are like fireflies tryin` to tell me that I`m wrong

So I try to find a reason
To forget the changin` seasons in my mind
But the winds of time are blowin`
And I`ve gotta go on knowin` that I tried

`Cause now I hear a different drummer
And I`ve used up all my summers
Chasin` rainbows that I really didn`t wanna find
But maybe someday when it`s over
When I`m just a little older
I can go back to the mountains on my mind
