Oh, Sleeper - The Summit lyrics

From here I see clear for miles Searching through our best times to force a smile My blood is leaving, but the sun's still shining And I can't see a cloud in sight I can see our own, but they won't get here in time Every man has a mountain And every day is spent climbing The view from the top Is just the journey that brought you And you'll give it all up For one more day at the bottom At the summit you'll wish That you were anywhere but here It's clear That every man has a mountain to fear I hear they could see the fire for miles But I don't know, if you'd known the cost, if you'd ever light it It took your two different banners on the frontline burning And I ain't put a cloud in sight If you knew you'd die alone would ever stand to fight? Every man has a mountain And every day he spends climbing The view from the top Is just the journey that brought him And he'd give it all up For one more day at the bottom At the summit he'll wish That he was anywhere but here Ain't it clear That every man has a mountain to fear I don't want to close our eyes I don't want to go our separate ways I don't want the story that Brought us here to end to day I don't want to close our eyes I don't want to go our separate ways I don't want the story that Brought us here to end to day Because the view from the top Is just the journey that brought us And I'd give it all up For one more day at the bottom Now at the summit I wish That I was anywhere but here It's so clear But I guess every man has a mountain to fear
