[Verse] The tide rolls in lazy like my heart at rest The sun paints golden on my ocean-side nest But I dream of heights where the air cuts deep Where echoes of peaks haunt the nights I sleep [Chorus] Oh the mountains They call They sing so clear With every wave here I feel them near The climb The grind The sky so wide A beach can't hold the fire inside [Verse 2] Seashells scatter where my bare feet roam But rocks on a ridge feel more like home The salty breeze whispers soft and slow Yet I miss the chill of the alpine snow [Bridge] Every palm tree sway feels like a tease I crave the wild wind in the mountain breeze I’m sinking deep in a sandy lull But I need where the heights make my spirit full [Chorus] Oh the mountains So stubborn and grand The grit of the climb The grip of my hand The beach is lovely But I can’t confide This longing hunger I keep inside [Outro] The moonlit waves can’t drown the sound Of rivers rushing from higher ground A beach house life could seem so sublime But I’ll always ache for the mountains I climb
