David LaMotte - Moving Mountains lyrics

When I was child I'd find my uncle Sitting in his old rocking chair For hours and hours, to me seemed like days I'd see him just sitting there If I asked him what he was doing He'd smile at me and say David, I'm watching that mountain 'cause it's going to move someday David, I'm watching that mountain 'cause it's going to move someday Faith to move mountains, hope to keep them there Love for the creatures that call her home And love for the trees and the air My uncle kept that mountain from moving 'cause the mountain knew he would see He said David you know it's a hard job But I reckon it's up to me The mountain doesn't want us people to know That she dances late at night But someday I'm going to see her And I reckon my uncle was right Someday I'm going to see her And I reckon my uncle was right There's one thing about a mountain You shouldn't move her if she don't want to go But my uncle would cry to see her today And the men trying to lay her low This time we can't just watch her It's a problem we can't ignore If we don't fight for the mountain Then the mountain will dance no more If we don't fight for the mountains Then the mountains will dance no more
