The other side of the mountain
Is where I wanna be
It's a far piece over the mountain
But I hope you'll go with me

I grew up as a dreamer
I found that dreams aren't free
I want you here with me

I've lived so long near the mountain
It's almost part of me
I want to have it behind me
It blocks out all I can see

It looms up dark and ancient
Its shadow over me
I want it behind me

All that time, all that precious time
It's gone from you and me
We're giving up this scene, oh
We're giving up this scene, oh, oh

Now some will say that we're destined
Some will call it fate
Me, I call it obsession
It's just like love and hate

We're prisoners of our passion
We all seem to find too late
I hope it's not too late

We're giving up this scene
Ah babe, ah, we're giving up this scene
We're gettin' out
Ah, we're giving up this scene
You and me, baby
Yeah, we're giving up this scene, oh, oh
