Mountainside

It was a night

Yeah

The kind of night

Left me pacing 'cross the floor

It was a dream

Like those other dreams

So many times before

I went back to the old town

To the streets I used to roam

And I looked into my daddy's eyes

And asked that fatal question

Why'd

You have to go

You had to go

There was a time when life was good

And everything felt so right

I don't know why

I never understood

Why you left us on that night

I went back

To that day when you left us on our own

Now I look into my baby's eyes

And I just know there is no way

I'd ever go

I'll never go

Take me to the mountainside

Far away from here

Where my eyes are open wide

No one gets too near
