Just Things

From way across this town I hear you cry
Now there's one sound that strikes me down inside
I drop my tools and bolt across this land
Before nightfall I'll have you in my hands

Oh, I feel for once I'm moving out
Doing the things we used to talk about
See, I feel for once I got a hold
Got such a vision and a drive untold
And there's your house, Godspeed, I'm running to
And for once I'll come across to you

Just one thing...

Just when my feet have almost left the ground
There's something big that pulls me back around
There's just one thing standing in my way
A fucking mountain going by my name

I see you on the path to something good
Just things don't come about the way they should

Watashiyama, Mt. Me
I only want to be with you
Watashiyama, Mt. Me
Got my own self that won't let me through
Watashiyama, Mt. Me
Get so tired of seeing my face

The evening sets, I stand here paralyzed
Looking my own mountain in the eyes
From on beyond I still can hear your cries
I'll take this hill and blow it to the skies

There's not much to ask, I say: The room to follow through
On what my judgment say to do, and the way to pray
If you say to the mountain "Be taken up and cast into the sea"
If will be done if you have faith, if you have faith

Watashiyama, Mt. Me
I only want to be with you
Watashiyama, Mt. Me
Got my own self that won't let me through
Watashiyama, Mt. Me
Get so tired of seeing my face

On the way my soul almost gave out
I ran into a mire of pride and doubt
But one love won and then I broke on through
One stripped child is coming through to you

One just thing
