On The Mountain

Let the wind wear away
 The words cut in the stone
 Let it clear what remains
 Let it scatter their bones
 But let there be you
 Walking a line on the plain
 And let it be you
 Getting up and beginning again
 And may you contain
 All that you have replaced
 Without judgement or fear
 With no intention left to waste
 Just let it be you
 Through the strength and the pain of your joy
 Just let it be you
 Tracking the years down through your voice
 ♪
 Deep and low
 Clear and true
 Let it be you
 ♪
 And your lover, she cried
 To see you there on the floor
 
 Spinning again, defeated
 Still abused and still a boy
 But I'm in awe and ashamed
 At the sound of your words and your voice
 Winding through you from someplace else
 Some place where you never had a single choice
 So let it be you
 Who comes through this town with his sword
 And let it be you
 That levels the rich and lies down with the poor
 And let it be you
 Who draws a clear line back through time
 And let it be you
 Who, when beaten, will always rise
 And let it be you
 Who will comfort us that need
 And it is just you
 That is remembered here and now by me
 ♪
 With love, goodbye
 If a man could never die
 Then, let it be you
