The Heart’s Mountains

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Abandoned bare On the heart's mountains, look How small there, look The last little village of words and higher But also how small A last homestead of feeling Familiar to you Abandoned bare on the heart's mountains [Verse 2] Rock base under your hands True, something blossoms here from silent erosion An unknowing herb breaks into blossom singing But the knowing man He who began to walk but is silent now Abandoned bare on the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains [Verse 3] Exposed on the mountains of the heart See how small there, see? The last hamlet of words and higher And yet so small A last homestead of feeling Do you recognise it? Exposed on the heart's mountains [Outro / Refrain] On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains On the heart's mountains
