Foot of the Mountain Lyrics

Like a dream on the ocean
Always drifting away
And I can't catch up
She just skips away - on the tide
Sometimes a great notion
Can lead you astray
So weak to devotion
So strong to desire
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e72249-paul_weller~foot_of_the_mountain_lyrics.html ]
Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
Take me off on your sail boat ride
Come on now angels, are on your side
But she slips away - oh, and never stays

Like mercury gliding
A silver teardrop that falls
And I CAN'T HOLD ON
Through my fingers she's gone

At the foot of the mountain
Such a long way to climb
How will I ever get up there -
Though I know I must try

Baby, baby, baby won't you let me ride
Take me off on your sail boat ride
Come on now angels, are on your side
But she slips away - oh, and never stays

Like a dream on the ocean
Always drifting away
And I can't catch up
She just skips away - on the tide

She just slips away - on the tide
Skips away - as she glides
