What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Driving near Mount Shavano
2
It seemed to be looking me over
3
Feeling that gaze down below
4
I pulled the car off on the shoulder
5
Staring at the rock and the sky
6
My heart began beating more slowly
7
Till I lost track of time
8
And forgot where it was I was going
9
CHORUS: Suddenly, I saw life from the brink
10
I watched an age pass me by like a wink
11
For just one heartbeat, I believe I could think
12
Like a mountain
13
Mountain, we measure our lives
14
By tens and by twenty years only
15
Teach us the ways of a million-year mind
16
What a million-year heart could be hoping
17
CHORUS:
18
And oh, if I'm wise I will strive and I'll pray
19
To turn that one tick in time into a day
20
And lead this poor picture-flash life in that way
21
Like a mountain
