Mountainside - Wishbone Ash

It was a night, yeah, the kind of night

Left me pacing 'cross the floor

It was a dream, like those other dreams

So many times before

I went back to the old town

To the streets I used to roam

And I looked into my daddy’s eyes

And asked that fatal question, «Why'd

You have to go?»

You had to go

There was a time when life was good

And everything felt so right

I don’t know why, I never understood

Why you left us on that night

I went back, to that day when you left us on our own —

Now I look into my baby’s eyes

And I just know there is no way

I’d ever go

I’ll never go

Take me to the mountainside

Far away from here

Where my eyes are open wide —

No one gets too near
