Lyrics for As He Climbed The Dark Mountain

Watched him walk away (watched him walk away) Climb the endless shadow side Watched him holding on (Watched him holding on) (watched him walk away) It was a thousand years, a thousand miles A thousand dreams, a thousand minutes With no goodbye Disappear from me (A thousand miles, a thousand dreams, a thousand minutes) Hold on! As he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain Let the mountain sleep In the past with all our bad dreams Was it a metaphor for all the subtle ways that we've grown apart? Was it mortality? Climbing and plunged Right off of the edge of his life! Into the hands of a loving God Or reaching forward to get torn apart With his hands in the air Was he laughing and dancing Or only just trying to wave "Goodbye"! Say a prayer for me (hold on!) As he climbed the highest peak of the dark mountain Let the mountain fall Struck me down until I can't go on Let go! Let me fall down! Onto the ground! Do we go on alone? It felt like a thousand years It was a thousand miles away It was a thousand miles away
