lyrics

Lyrics:

This place is yours, but if it’s mine
If it’s ours, how can it feel empty?
You say to stay I have a home
It feels so different since I’ve gone
It was mine, it was ours, it was good
It still smells like incense
I think about our last goodbye
But I won’t stay and cry
It’s no longer

Mine is the sky and the breeze and the first foot in the water
What’s mine is my ticket to go, to see, to feel, and try to live forever
You say I’m split between two worlds and putting on too many faces
But I can’t stay here to rot away
When the world is mine

I see the sun as it shines
Through the dirty pane of the window
On and on it’s sinking low
I’ll follow her wherever she goes
I’ll drive along, walk away, I’ll sail on by
Stopping where the wind blows
If I get lost don’t come for me
No roots to plant me down

I’m free in the sky and the breeze to put my first foot in the water
Free with my ticket to go, to see, to feel and try to live forever
You say I’m split between two worlds and putting on too many faces
But I can’t stay here to rot away
When the world is mine

My home it has no doors, no walls
No lock or key to keep me chained up as a prisoner
My church is found behind the tree
My temple is the sea
Crisp wind is biting at my neck, urging me on
Pushing me forth to my adventure
The Mountain’s Fire, it calls to me
To keep it company

Let myself be free in the sky and the breeze to put my first foot in the water
Free with my ticket to go, to see, to feel and try to live forever
You say I’m split between two worlds and putting on too many faces
But I can’t stay here to rot away
When the world is mine

Mountain Fire France

Mountain Fire, c’est un groupe de femmes, une histoire d’amitié franco-américaine. Trois voix qui tissent les sons et les mots. Des chants comme catharsis, des rythmes qui nous relient à l’univers. Leur new folk sombre et lumineuse joue sur la corde des émotions, en harmonie, pour laisser les spectateurs sans voix. ... more
