Lonely Mountain Towerin' over me The breeze is shoutin' Like a desperate plea Will you cave in Will you back out Will you give up Will you fall down But you're calling me Lonely mountain Though your peaks Pierce the sky And your river's flowin' Far and wide I will climb That sacred tower I might find Some hidden power Deep within My body's temple I might rise I might rise Lonely Mountain Towerin' over me The wolves are howlin' Like a warning You are too frail You cannot stand Against the gale That runs this land But you're callin' me Sacred mountain Though your peaks Pierce the sky And your river's flowin' Far and wide I will climb That sacred tower I might find Some hidden power Deep within My body's temple I might rise I might rise
