I see a mountain at my gates I see it more & more each day What I give it takes away Whether I go or when I stay I see a mountain at my gates I see it more & more each day I see a fire out by the lake I'll drive my car without the breaks I see a mountain in my way It's looming larger by the day I see a darkness in my fate I'll drive my car without the breaks Oh gimme some time Show me the foothold from which I can climb Yeah when I feel low You show me a signpost for where I should go I see a mountain at my gates I see it more & more each day & my desire wears a dark dress But each day I see you less Oh gimme some time Show me the foothold from which I can climb Yeah when I feel low You show me a signpost for where I should go Through lanes & stone rows, black granite, wind blows Fire lake & far flame go now but come again Dark clouds gather round will I run or stand my ground? Oh when I come to climb Show me the mountain so far behind Yeah it's farther away It's shadow gets smaller day after day Yeah, gimme my way Gimme my love Gimme my choice You keep me coming around Gimme my fate Gimme my lungs Gimme my voice You keep me coming around Gimme my lungs Gimme my, gimme my, gimme my, gimme my Gimme my, gimme my, gimme... gimme my way Gimme my fate Gimme my lungs Gimme my choice You keep me coming round
