Over the mountains

Southern winds on runway three

I can hear the engines calling

Like an arrow flying free

And the rain just keeps on falling

And the tremblin' asphalt shines

Like a knife she cuts the silence

'Till she takes off and she glides

On to the horizon

Over the mountains

Freedom's more than a word in the wind

All the sorrows your heart held in fear

Left behind now, they all disappear

And whatever seemed so mighty and tall

Ain't so big after all

Here i'm standing in the haze

I can see the clouds she's climbing

As her tail lights fade away

'Till my eyes no longer find 'em

There's the echo of a sound

Hear it humming in the distance

Like she's calling out my name

I have no resistance

Over the mountains

Freedom's more than a word in the wind

All the sorrows your heart held in fear

Left behind now, they all disappear

And whatever seemed so mighty and tall

Ain't so big after all

Now it's silent everywhere

Rain is creepin in my shoes and

I smell coffee in the air

Realize that I could use one

And where ever she may fly

Wonders of the world unravel

Over hills and trees so high

That's where I'll travel

Over the mountains

Freedom's more than a word in the wind

All the sorrows your heart held in fear

Left behind now, they all disappear

And whatever seemed so mighty and tall

Ain't so big after all
