You and I will live in the side of a mountain
I’ll build us a home on an ancient granite ledge
Only we will know the secret passage to get there
We will fly our flag, stretching proud to the heavens
Declaring in the wind a true and steadfast love
Forged within the cracks of the rust and dirt where we come from
Don’t be afraid
Just come away
Up and away
Where you and I will live
Hand in hand we’ll climb as the earth recedes beneath us
Whenever you get tired I’ll take you on my back
And every day will shine a golden sun to make you glad
Don’t be afraid
Just come away
Up and away
Where you and I will live
You and I will live in the side of a mountain
Overlooking all the troubles below
Here among the clouds, not a single sadness will touch you now
