about

I've been through many chapters and changes in my life, and the mountains have always been there for me. The last verse is about my grandfather, who died hiking Mt. LeConte when I was five years old. I don't have any memories of him, but when I'm in the mountains I know who he is.

lyrics

Since ‘68 you’ve been a part of me
Climbed your hills to touch the sky
I felt at peace when I’d lift my voice
And hear angels in reply
Long hours in the family car
I didn’t like it at the start
Then I’d cross that divide and saw at last
The mountains in my heart

My ambitiousness, it caught up to me
And I forgot what it meant to play
I tried to find you in other things
But I’d miss a Montreat summer’s day
They say grace is leaving, then coming home
To the place from which you start
Well, if that’s the case
Then I’ve found my home
In the mountains in my heart

Climb up high on Lookout
See all of creation
And wonder out loud
Moving silently around
Sing a song of what you’ve found
I don’t know when my feet will touch the ground

My grandfather gave his life for you
And if you go, what a way to depart
To spread your wings and forever stay
In the mountains in your heart
