lyrics

We saw the bones at the base of the mountain
And we kept on anyway
We took a chance and we drank from the fountain
And here we are today
But not for long
Don’t you worry about it
But if we stay long
What will you do about it?

This is bigger country than we dreamed
Still too small for you and me
Let’s call this your home, over here
And I’ll build my home anywhere
Near cool clear water
Over green, green grass
One day we’ll look back
But only one of us will laugh

We are the bones at the base of the mountain
We are our own cruel fate
We took it all and we gave back nothing
And here we are today
Where we belong
As if we might have planned it
If we were wrong
Don’t tell our children about it
