More the wiser

coming down from my mountain

I had no more reason to climb

to where my worries were

now left behind

feeling good, feeling so fine

feeling so right

feeling at home feeling in tune

with my surroundings

yes, no more the fool am I

the fool it was I left behind

more the wiser, stronger in decision

no reason to wonder did I right

I know I did it was my decision

that left her behind

Wish you were here

 

and here I am coming down my mountain

descending into the lost contents of my weary soul

looking out over the hills covered with my patience

and I know I'm a long way away from going home

and I wish you were here where the trees smell fresh

bearing their purefying fruit for a stricken mind 

continuesly on the run as I cannot stop

'cause so much has come weighing down on me

and now  it rains pouring down its remains in the gutter

of my lost tomorrows as yesterdays sun has let me down

and I so wish you were here...

will you take me ...

home ...?

Life

and when I did descend from my mountain of pain
where my world stopped and made me think again,

I had met my self comin' up, feelin' the sense of life findin'
me in yet another day,

so I promissed my self  never to drown again in those hills
leadin' up to its agony,

'cause a next time climbin' it might not bring back the promiss
of a new world in yet another day .
