Move To The Mountains - Clock Opera

You’re looking at me with questions in mind

Are we ready?

Is now the right time?

Those lines on my palm won’t tell you a thing

The signs and the stars

Can’t say what tomorrow will bring

Would we leave all our doubt and fear for wonder?

Hold ourselves upright or go under?

If I make us a tape for colder country

Will we listen to it when we’re older?

Maybe

I tried, but I couldn’t see the curve

That’s running round the earth until I saw you

So let’s move to the mountains and shove our shack up

Sew up our silk and milk our matter

Let’s leave all this city to blame and bluster

And meet in the snow to make our muster

I tried, but I couldn’t see the curve

That’s running round the earth until I saw you

And though the days will turn to nights

We’ll never see the stars

If we stay where we are

We can go where we want, make up rules

Be a part of it, stop passing through

And we will see this world anew

So let’s leave all our doubt and fear for wonder

I’ll hold you up, we won’t go under

Let’s move to the mountains and shove our shack up

Sew up our silk and milk our matter

You know we can always come back one day

To see what has changed, who’s taken our place

Let’s leave all this city to blame and bluster

And meet in the snow to make our muster
