I never wanted to sing I never wanted to sing Well, I thought I'd be a dancer Use my body like a language And I never wanted to sing I never wanted to write I never wanted to write Sometimes it comes right through me Not a choice, it is a duty And I never wanted to write It's another earthy morning I can hear the mountain yawning Singing, "I'll hold you up for life" ♪ Oh, every story after all get boring And I can't believe I'll die Oh, every story in its own little glory And we're doing a thing alive I'll never see my light I'll never know how it shines Well, I'm laid out at the crest of something I might be best at And I don't even know how bright It's another earthy morning I can hear the mountain yawning Singing, "I'll hold you up for life" Walking through the roses I'm available to angels And I know I'll never die Oh, I can feel the way it feels to be Right here with you I gotta give myself away To know what it is I hold true
