Save A Mountain For Me Lyrics

Save me a mountain to climb

Save me a river to cross

At midnight the sound of the stockyard trains

Wail in the distance and rattle my chains

Save me a valley like the one in the distance

Save me a canyon to swallow this jail

I wanna stand outside and feel the rain when it falls

Breathe the air on the other side of these walls

Save a mountain for me

Save a mountain for me

It sounds like a choir when the chaingangs shout

Save me a mountain for when I get out

Save me a desert, just me and the sand

Save me a sea to sail

In my heart I know I'm too weak to be strong

I've been wasting away in this jail for too long

Save a mountain for me

Save a mountain for me

It's like a choir of fallen angels when the chaingangs shout

Save me a mountain for when I get out

"Has the jury reached a verdict?"

"We have your honour."

"How does the jury find?"
Godley & Creme - Save A Mountain For Me - http://motolyrics.com/godley-and-creme/save-a-mountain-for-me-lyrics.html
"We find the defendant guilty."

"Do the defendants have anything to say on their behalf,

Before the court pronounces sentence?"

Save me a mountain to climb

Save me a river to cross

At midnight the sound of the stockyard trains

Still wail in the distance and rattle my brains

Save me a valley like the one in the distance

Save me a canyon to swallow this jail

If only I could tie all these dreams together

I could break out of the big house and run forever

Save a mountain for me

Oh save a mountain for me

It's like a choir of fallen angels when the chaingangs shout

Save me a mountain for when I get out

Save a mountain for me

Save it, save it

Save a mountain for me

It sounds like a choir when the chaingangs shout

Save a mountain for me

Save a mountain for when I get out

I need a mountain

Save a mountain...
