On The Mountain Songtext

Walking a line on the plain

Let it be you

Getting up again and again

There you contain

All that you have replaced

Without judgment or fear

With no intention left to waste

Just let it be you

Through the strength and pain of rejoice

Just let it be you
Tracking the years down through your voice

Deep and loud

Clear and true

Let it be you

And your lover she cried

To see you there on the farm

Spinning again, defeated

Still abused and still a boy

But I'm annoyed and ashamed

At the sound of your tenor voice

Winding through you from someplace else

Some place where you never had a single choice

So let it be you

That comes through this town with a sword

Let it be you

That levels the rich and lies down with the poor

Let it be you

That draws a clear line back through time

Let it be you

Who when beaten will always rise

Let it be you

Who will comfort us that need

It is just you

That is remembered and known by me

With love, goodbye

If a man could never die

Then let it be you
