Lyrics
Climb The Mountain
We never ever made it up the mountain
We never ever made it to the top
Anytime we tried to take that last step
There was always something that made you stop
We never ever made it to Nirvana
You never really managed to unwind
You always had to fight your own battles
They stopped you finding any peace of mind
Chorus
I must have been a fool to miss these warnings
I'd convinced myself that things would turn out right
How could I have forgotten all these mornings
You came in after being out all night
Verse
We never ever made it to the altar
We came so very close once or twice
At the last minute you just seemed to falter
And now we've finally paid the price
Chorus
I must have been a fool to miss these warnings
I'd convinced myself that things would turn out right
How could I have forgotten all these mornings
You came in after being out all night
Verse
We never ever made it up the mountain
We never ever made it to the top
Anytime we tried to take that last step
There was always something that made you stop
