Mountain At My Gates
Foals

[Verse 1]

I see a mountain at my gates

I see it more and more each day

What I give, it takes away

Whether I go or when I stay


[Verse 2]

I see a mountain at my gates

I see it more and more each day

I see a fire out by the lake

I'll drive my car without the brakes


[Verse 3]

I see a mountain in my way

It's looming larger by the day

I see a darkness in my fate

I'll drive my car without the brakes


[Chorus]

Oh, gimme some time

Show me the foothold from which I can climb

Yeah, when I feel low

You show me a signpost for where I should go


[Verse 4]

I see a mountain at my gates

I see it more and more each day

And my desire wears a dark dress

But each day, I see you less


[Chorus]

Oh, gimme some time

Show me the foothold from which I can climb

Yeah, when I feel low

You show me a signpost for where I should go



[Bridge]

Through lanes and stone rows

Black granite, wind blows

Fire lake and far flame

Go now but come again

Dark clouds gather 'round

Will I run or stand my ground?


[Chorus 2]

Oh, when I come to climb

Show me the mountain so far behind

Yeah, it's farther away

Its shadow gets smaller day after day


[Outro]

Yeah, gimme my way

Gimme my love

Gimme my choice

You keep me coming around

Gimme my fate

Gimme my lungs

Gimme my voice

You keep me coming around

Gimme my lungs

Gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my

Gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my way

Gimme my fate

Gimme my lungs

Gimme my choice

You keep me coming round
